It is known that the principal Poincaré Pontryagin function is generically an Abelian integral. We give a sufficient condition on monodromy to ensure that it is also an Abelian integral in non-generic cases. In non-generic cases it is an iterated integral. Uribe (2006 J. Dyn. Control. Syst. 12 109–34, 2009 J. Diff. Eqns 246 1313–41) gives in a special case a precise description of the principal Poincaré Pontryagin function, an iterated integral of length at most 2, involving logarithmic functions with only 1 ramification at a point at infinity. We extend this result to some non-isomonodromic families of real Morse polynomials.
