Proximate And Ultimate Determinants Of Clutch Size In Anatidae, Paul A. Johnsgard
Proximate And Ultimate Determinants Of Clutch Size In Anatidae, Paul A. Johnsgard
Paul Johnsgard Collection
In a stimulating analysis, Lack (1967, 1968a) reviewed waterfowl clutch size and egg size data, and concluded that interspecific variations in average clutch size are generally inversely related to those of relative egg size. Thus, he suggested that the average clutch size of each waterfowl species has evolved in relation to the average availability of food to the female around the time of nesting. He hypothesized that in waterfowl, relatively large eggs have probably evolved to provide the newly-hatched young with a large food supply (an idea he subsequently (1968b) questioned) or with an adequate insulating layer of fat. He …
