Frntage Rad, Frt Cllins, Clrad US; 2Department f Bilgy, The Clrad Cllege, Clrad Springs, Clrad US; and 3Department f Statistics, Clrad State University, Frt Cllins, Clrad US BSTRCT.--Eggs cllected frm captive and wild Peregrine Falcns (Falc peregrinus) were used t examine variatin in eggshell thickness, length, breadth, and initial weight t reslve questins abut eggshell data frm wild falcns. Fr captive falcns, shell thickness f first clutches did nt change ver the years a falcn laid r with embrynic develpment. Eggshells in third clutches, but nt secnd clutches, were significantly thinner than thse frm first clutches. Greatest variatin in shell thickness existed between eggs within a clutch and did nt differ significantly between wild and captive eggs. Entire clutches f wild falcns shuld be represented in future studies t maximize the chance f btaining a representative sample in regard t shell thickness. Egg size (L, B, and fresh weight) decreased ver the years a captive falcn laid. significant decrease in size (B and fresh weight) als ccurred in secnd and third clutches laid the same year. Ratcliffe's Index generally appeared t be a reliable indicatr f shell thickness in captive-laid eggs. Received 30 September 1983, accepted 23 February EGGSHELL thickness has been reduced in a va- riety f predatry birds (ndersn and Hickey 1972), a phenmenn shwn t be clsely crrelated t the presence f DDE (Cade et al. 1971, Lincer 1975, Peakall and Kiff 1979). Variatin in shell thickness relating t embrynic develpment, the laying female's age, and prductin f multiple clutches has smewhat cluded an elucidatin f the precise relatinships between DDE and eggshell thinning. Papers n nnraptrial birds have fcused n variatin in eggshell thickness, and sme have defined sampling schemes t maximize the detectin f thickness changes. Thickness decreases with embrynic develpment have been reprted in Cedar Waxwings (Btnbycilla cedrrutn; Rthstein 1972), Japanese Quail (Cturnix japnica; Kreitzer 1972), and White-faced Ibises (Plegadis chihi; Capen 1977). In Cedar Waxwings, but nt in the White-faced Ibis, eggs frm smaller clutches als have thicker shells. In a study f museum eggshells f Clapper Rails (Railus lngirstris), Black-crwned Night Herns (Nycticrax nycticrax), White Ibises (Eudcitnus albus), Nrthern Mckingbirds (Mitnus plygtts), and Lggerhead Shrikes (Lanius ludvicianus), variatin in shell thickness amng eggs within clutches cntributed as much t the sample variance as variatin between clutches frm different females (Klass et al. 1974). The large captive ppulatin f breeding Peregrine Falcns (Falc peregrinus) develped by The Peregrine Fund (Frt Cllins, Clrad and Ithaca, New Yrk) t prduce falcns fr release prvided a surce f eggs frm females f knwn age and rigin. dditinally, the substitutin f captive-reared yung fr wild Peregrine Falcn clutches in Clrad prvided us with the pprtunity t cmpare variatin in egg parameters amng wild-laid eggs with thse prduced in captivity (Burnham et al. 1978). The wild birds were subject t DDEinduced eggshell thinning and prduced shells averaging 13% thinner than thse f the captive birds (Endersn et al. 1982). In this study we examined variatins in shell thickness, egg breadth (B), and egg length (L) f wild-laid eggs within clutches, between clutches, amng sites (females) by year, and between all sites ver several years. We cmpared shell-thickness measurements fr captive-laid eggs with embrynic develpment. Thickness, L, and B in captive-laid eggs were als related t female age and t secnd and third clutches laid within a year. Egg length and breadth were cnsidered because they are used t calculate Ratcliffe's Index, a cmmn measure fr eval- 578 The uk 101: July 1984

These analyses clarify histrical data n Peregrine Falcn eggshell thickness and suggest sample techniques fr cllecting peregrine eggs that will prvide the mst accuratestimate f shell thinning resulting frm DDE residues. METHODS falcns and lst in the lfts. n analysis f variance was perfrmed t determine pssible linear and quadractichanges ver years f laying n length, breadth, and calculated initial weight. dditinally, clutch averages were calculated fr length, breadth, and initial weight f first, secnd, and third clutches f eggs laid within a year by 4 captive peregrines, and the averages were cmpared by t-tests. Measurements f 299 eggs laid in first clutches thrughut a perid as lng as 11 yr by 14 captive peregrines were used t assess the ptential effect f female age n shell thickness. We perfrmed an analysis f variance n the yearly means t determine differences. Eighty-eight first clutches frm 16 captive females ver as many as 11 yr prvided data n egg breadth, length, and initial weight.

We als fund a significant decrease in length, breadth, and initial weight ver years f laying (Fig. 2 and Table 2). DISCUSSION The large variatin (within clutches) that we have fund amng wild-laid eggs suggests that samples based n ne egg in a clutch r a few fragments may insufficient!y represent the average shell thickness prduced by a falcn. If eggs r shell fragments were frm secnd r third clutches, a further increase in variatin wuld be pssible because f the trend tward thinner eggshells after the first clutch. Because little variatin exists in mean shell thickness amng clutches f different females within a year r f the same female (nest site) in different years, accuracy may nt be enhanced by cllecting eggs annually frm many females within a ppulatin. The great within-clutch variatin in shell thickness seen in wild-laid eggs may nt be due t DDE cntaminatin, because the much thicker captive-laid shells vary similarly. The average shell thickness f first clutches laid thrughut the entire reprductive life f captive falcns des nt change significantly TBLE 3.

6 July 1984] Variatin in Peregrine Falcn Eggs 583 (Fig. 2). Therefre, this statistic frm wild ppulatins, which may have skewed age distributins, may nt be biased tward thinner r thicker shells. Shell-thickness data frm hatched, addled, r infertile eggs are equally representative. The secnd cmmn analysis f shell thinning is Ratcliffe's Index, which is the dry weight f the shell (mg) divided by the prduct f its length (mm) and breadth (mm) (Ratcliffe 1980). decrease in length r breadth ver the years f laying culd bias the Index dwnwards. T test this, we held shell weight t be 8% f initial egg weight and determined the Index values ver the years f laying (Table 4). The change in the Index did nt exceed +2.8% frm the first t seventh years f laying, whether the average Index frm the first r secnd year f laying was used as the base. fter the seventh year f laying, smaller Index values result, even thugh shell thickness (Fig. 1) may remain cnstant. ppulatin with an age distributin skewed tward very ld birds culd prduce eggs with Indecies biased dwnwards. If many egg samples frm a ppulatin were frm secnd r even third clutches, a further bias culd be intrduced, because a significant reductin in egg breadth and initial weight ccurred between clutches laid in a single year by a falcn (Table 3). reductin f length was als evident, but nt significant. CONCLUSIONS Our results frm wild-laid eggs suggested little need t cllect eggs frm a large number f females each year within an eclgically similar ppulatin. T maximize the chance f btaining a representative sample f shellthickness changes, all eggs in either first r secnd clutches shuld be represented, r the number f cllectin sites r cllectin years shuld be increased. Eggshells frm hatched, infertile, r addled eggs were equally representative. Ratcliffe's Index appears t be a reliable indicatr f shell thickness unless measure- ments are frm secnd r third clutches r frm eggs laid by very ld females. CKNOWLEDGMENTS We are grateful t G.
