Prey switching
Apostatic selection has been used by authors looking at the differences between different genetic morphs. Clarke described a similar phenomenon and called it "apostatic selection".

Another way to remain unattacked in plain sight is to look different from other members of the same species. This creates a mechanism for negative frequency-dependent selection, apostatic selection.

List of polymorphisms
In addition, there is evidence of apostatic selection, with the birds preferentially taking the most common morph. Apostatic selection could explain the polymorphism within sites, but song thrushes are not everwhere present.
