(Polish Acad Sciences, 2001-09-01)
Patterns of nest construction and nest site selection of two murid rodents of the Brazilian Atlantic rainforest were described. The animals were captured in an area of about 1.5 ha of primary forest, marked, equipped with ...
Effects of temperature and time constraints on the seasonal variation in nest morphology of the Thorn tailed Rayadito (Aphrastura spinicauda)
(Taylor & Francis, 2017)
Environmental adjustment is the most invoked explanation for intra-seasonal variation in bird nest morphology. However, time constraints may also be important, coming as a trade-off between the costs of nest building and ...
