Add to ORKGSUMMARY.—Breeding ecology of a burrow-nesting passerine, the white-rumped snowfinch Monti-fringilla taczanowskii. This work provides reproductive data about the white-rumped snowfinch Montifringilla taczanowskii and learn how avian life history respond to cavity-nesting and altitudinal gradients. The study was carried out in an alpine meadow in the northeastern Tibetan plateau, in Gahai National Nature Reserve (34 ° 14’ N, 102 ° 20 ’ E). During two breeding seasons individuals were marked and their nests contents were monitored. Nests were placed in pika Ochotona curzionae burrows and constructed by females only. Egg-laying occurred between late April and early June. Some pairs (9 %) made two breeding attempts in a single year. Clutch size ...
