Mismatching between nest volume and clutch volume reduces egg survival and fledgling success in black-tailed gulls
A longstanding suggestion posits that parents prefer to match nest volume and clutch size (clutch volume), but few studies have tested this in colonial seabirds that nest in the open. Here, we demonstrate the effects of nest–clutch volume matching on egg survival, hatching, and fledgling success in...
