The breeding biology of Eudyptes penguins with particular reference to egg-size dimorphism
The breeding biology of Macaroni Penguins Eudyptes chrysolophus and of Rockhopper Penguins E. chrysocome was studied at Marion Island (46°54'8, 37°45'E) in the austral summers of 1974-75 and 1976-77. The clutch comprises two eggs, the first-laid (A-) egg being markedly smaller than the second-laid (...
