SUMMARY: REPRODUCTION AMONG TETRAONIDAE IN SETESDALEN,<br />

SOUTH NORWAY. IN 1929-1934<br />

Data are presented on rcproduction of Willow Grouse, Black Grouse and<br />

Capcrcaillie, found by field studies by Per HØst and Yngvar Hagen. For the years<br />

1929 and 1930 wc build only on thc preliminary rcports (Hpst 1930 a & b).<br />

Egg laying dates are calculated from hatching dates using lengths of incubation<br />

pcriods of 21, 24 and 26 days, and egg laying intervals of 1, 1% and 1% dnys, for<br />

Willow Grouse, Black Grouse and Capercaillie respcctitPely.<br />

Start of egg laying, numhcr of eggs and egg loss are prcsentcd in Tables 1-4.<br />

We have no data for 1931, however, the year when micro-rodent numbcrs crashed.<br />

Both Willow Grouse and Black Grouse had earliest egg laying and biggest clutches<br />

in 1934. Egg laying was delnyed in 1932, a year with a late thaw.<br />

it is stressed that the data for the increasing weight of Willow Grouse chicks from<br />

June to September presented by Hagen (1937). do not represent individual growth
