Avian species differ markedly in the extent to which males contribute to pre- hatching and posthatching parental care. In a recent comparative study, Moller and Birkhead (1993) concluded that diversity in male parental care was associated with differ

Parents may hedge against developmental accidents, the premature and unforeseen failure of dependent offspring, by adding supernumeraries to the clutch or brood. The success of such an insurance strategy depends upon backup or marginal offspring bein

In siblicidal birds, overt aggression is used by nestlings to resolve competition for food, and the nestlings of most species diminish or abate their combat when that competition is relaxed. Previous studies of colonial herons and egrets, however, ha

Crested penguins, Eudyptes spp., lay two eggs of vastly different sizes and regularly raise only one offspring per breeding attempt. First-laid (A-) eggs are substantially smaller than second-laid (B-) eggs and are less likely to produce the lone sur

Sibling aggression in nestling Arceidae has been associated with a diet of monopolizably small prey items: in a Texas colony two egret species that eat small prey are siblicidal, while adjacent broods of great blue herons, Ardea herodias, eat very la

Computer simulations were used to explore the influence of sperm- competition outcomes on variability in male reproductive success. The results indicate that in polygynous mating systems, sperm competition per se does not necessarily affect variation

In facultatively siblicidal bird species, the amount of food delivered by parent birds to their young ("food amount") has been assumed to be both an important proximate and ultimate cause of fatal aggression. The proximate "Food Amount Hypothesis" (F
