- A parasite in wolf's clothing: hawk mimicry reduces mobbing of cuckoos by hosts (2011, background): “However, cuckoos also face problems in overcoming host defenses at an earlier stage, namely gaining access to hosts’ nests to lay their eggs (Moksnes et al. 1991; Røskaft et al. 2002; Davies et al. 2003).”
- Reed warblers discriminate cuckoos from sparrowhawks with graded alarm signals that attract mates and neighbours (2008, background): “A first key line of defence is protecting the nest from intrusions by the parasitic female (Moksnes et al. 1991; Røskaft et al. 2002b; Davies et al. 2003).”
- Are blackcaps current winners in the evolutionary struggle against the common cuckoo? (2004, background): “Additional support for a previous interaction between cuckoos and these passerines is the fact that blackcaps respond very aggressively towards dummy cuckoos near their nests (Moksnes et al. 1990; Røskaft et al. 2002b), and obviously look upon the parasite as a threat.”
- The wages of violence: mobbing by mockingbirds as a frontline defence against brood-parasitic cowbirds (2013, background): “Selection pressures on different lines of host defences are likely to be interdependent (Soler et al. 1999; Røskaft et al. 2002; Britton et al. 2007; Kilner & Langmore 2011) and may even be antagonistic.”
- Cuckoo adaptations: trickery and tuning (2011, background): “…nest defence, egg rejection and chick rejection in places and at times when parasitism is more likely (e.g. nest defence: Lindholm & Thomas, 2000; Røskaft et al., 2002; Welbergen & Davies, 2009; egg rejection: Brooke, Davies & Noble, 1998; Stokke et al., 2008; chick rejection: Langmore et al.,…”
- Functional reference in an alarm signal given during nest defence: seet calls of yellow warblers denote brood-parasitic brown-headed cowbirds (2004, background): “1999), and that defensive responses are less developed or absent in populations allopatric or recently sympatric with brood parasites (e.g. Lindholm and Thomas 2000; Røskaft et al. 2002; but see, e.g., Prather et al. 1999).”
