For that, 3 trees strongly infested by the pest were cut down between December 2007 and July 2008. The dissection of the 14 wood discs having a volume of 53 dm3 , enabled us to count 2920 individuals with an average density of 55 individuals/dm3 . At any time of the year, at least two stages of each population coexist together with fluctuating rates. The adult insects as well as the larvae are present throughout the period of experimentation. These last constitute the majority of the taken population (78%). The eggs and the nymphs, almost absent for wintry time appear in spring. Some morphological characteristics of larvae and eggs are set.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brahimi, Z.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dziri, H.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Benyacoub, S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chabi, Y.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Banbura, J.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Breeding ecology of Algerian woodchat shrikes Lanius senator: low breeding success</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FOLIA ZOOLOGICA</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">biology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">clutch size</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">egg size</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fledging success</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nesting</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nestling growth</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">North Africa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">passerine</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2003</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2003///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">52</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">309 - 316</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Breeding ecology of woodchat shrikes Lanius senator was investigated in the EL-Kala National Park in North-East Algeria (36degrees53'N; 8degrees30'E) in 1998-1999. Quercus suber was the tree species most frequently used as support for nests, which were constructed at a mean height of 5 m. First eggs in clutches were laid 7 May, and clutch size was 4.9. Approximately 42% eggs gave fledglings. Clutch size declined during the course of the breeding season but fledgling success did not. Fledging success was positively correlated with per clutch mean egg length and the height of the nest location above ground. We suggest that the major selective pressures that shape the life history of Algerian woodchat shrikes are relatively heave predation and poor food availability.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: KVETNA 8, BRNO 603 65, CZECH REPUBLIC&lt;br/&gt;publisher: INST VERTEBRATE BIOLOGY AS CR</style></notes></record></records></xml>
