摘要
Within-clutch repeatability of length, breadth and volume of eggs of the Black-headed Gull Larus ridibundus was studied in Central Poland (1981-1983). Significant repeatabilities of all traits were recorded and ranged from 0.510 to 0.607 for all clutch size categories pooled. The results suggest that in the studied population one should expect relatively low or intermediate heritability of egg dimensions. © 1990 Verlag der Deutschen Ornithologen-Gesellschaft.
