Egg-size, as a component of life history, is expected to be traded-off with other components and, consequently, to display a pattern of variation between different habitats and altitudes. Relevant data being very scarcely available for just a few bird species caused us to study interhabitat and interaltitude variation in egg dimensions and mass in the Blue Tit Parus caeruleus ultramarinus, taking the advantage of the occurrence of this species in a variety of habitats and at different altitudes in North Africa (north-eastern Algeria). In 1991-1993 we selected 6 study sites representing two types of habitat (rich deciduous forests dominated by Alnus glutinosa and Quercus faginea vs poor evergreen forests of Quercus suber) at three elevations...
