The field study has been carried out in “Los Millares”, one property of Andévalo Occidental (southern Spain, Andalusia, Huelva). This zone was chosen for two reasons: the existence of previous data about the presence and evolution of leaf-damaging insects during the period 1985-1988, fruit of the work of F.J. Toimil and collaborators; as well as the certainty that this year the population of this insects was very high. The results showed that Tortrix viridana, Archips xylosteana, Periclista andrei and, on a smaller scale, Catocala nynphagoga y Dryobotodes eremita constitute at the moment the main leaf-damaging insects, representing more than 87% of the leaf-damaging found. This population can cause big damages in the holm oak forests, with important economic and ecological losses</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>3</ref-type><contributors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Efecto de las inyecciones de fosfonato potásico en tronco de encina (QUERCUS ILEX SUBSP.

In different years the density in two plots without nest-boxes varied between 1.0 and 6.5 pairs per 10 ha. Nestbox introduction seems to have increased the density of breeding pairs. The mean laying date was earlier (6 vs. 13 May) in low altitude (500-750 m a.s.l.) plots than in a high altitude (900-1000) m a.s.l.) plot, but clutch size (6.9 vs. 6.5 eggs) was not significantly different (mean 6.6 eggs). No differences in mean laying dates were found between years. Significant differences in clutch size were found only between two years at the high altitude site. There was a slight, non-significant, seasonal decline in clutch size. No second clutches were laid. These results are discussed in the context of other Mediterranean studies with special focus on the differences and similarities between Corsican and mainland populations. It is shown that most of the characteristics of the Corsican population (i.e. density, habitat use, laying date, clutch size, number of broods per year) are shared by some populations on the mainland. On the other hand, some breeding traits of Blue Tit populations in southern France are closer to those of Central and North European populations than to the Iberian ones.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-notes></record></records></xml>
