Abstract:
Sixty-two adult male willow ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus) were collected over 3 days in April 1979 from a single flock along the Hudson Bay coast of Ontario. Twenty-one ptarmigan contained cestodes (genus Raillietina) in the anterior of the small intestine and 41 were free of cestodes. Each ptarmigan was dissected into its principal voluntary muscles, liver, and intestinal components, and the entire body was subjected to neutral fat extraction. Parasitized willow ptarmigan had significantly heavier empty small intestinal weights than nonparasitized birds. All other variables pertaining to the fa

Abstract:
Context Nest predation is a major factor influencing life history and population dynamics of ground-nesting birds. The transitions between the northern boreal mountain birch forests and the low-alpine tundra are important habitats for the willow ptarmigan, Lagopus lagopus (Linnaeus, 1758). During the past decades, these landscapes have been extensively developed with cabin resorts in southern Norway, which has led to an increased number of roads and foot paths in relatively undisturbed habitats.

Abstract:
AbstractThe cestode Hymenolepis microps is an intestinal parasite of tetraonid birds, including the willow ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus). This parasite is able to maintain a high prevalence and intensity throughout the year, even in a subarctic environment in bird populations with relatively low host densities, indicating effective transmission routes. Willow ptarmigan consume mainly vegetal material and active consumption of invertebrates is confined to the first two or three weeks of life. Ptarmigan are infected by different species of ectoparasites, of which two species of feather lice, Lagop

Abstract:
Abstract Nest predation is the most important factor limiting reproductive success of Willow Ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus), as it is for many bird species. Using program MARK, we examined patterns of daily nest survival in two widely separated populations of Willow Ptarmigan in Manitoba and British Columbia, Canada, by examining variation among years, over the course of the breeding season or in relation to the age of the nest, or age and condition of the female. At La Pérouse Bay, Manitoba, daily nest survival increased linearly throughout the season, with moderate annual variation. Nests also

Predation of eggs is a major loss in production for many populations of grouse, yet often the identity of the predators, their pattern of search, and their impact on spacing of nests is unknown. We set out clutches of quail eggs to simulate willow ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus) nests at three densities (100/km2, 50/km2, and 27/km2) to (i) investigate the effects of nest density and concealment on predation rates, (ii) investigate the temporal and spatial patterns of predation, (iii) identify nest predators, and (iv) compare predation rates on artificial nests and nests of willow ptarmigan.

Abstract:
Interclutch variation in the size of free-living willow ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus alexandrae) eggs was examined at Chilkat Pass, British Columbia. Egg volume (19.9 ± 0.1 cm3; mean ± 1 SE) fell within the range reported for other populations of ptarmigan. Most of the egg-size variation (56.0%) was explained by differences among females, but renesting ability and nesting attempt were also important. The age-class of females and timing of nest loss had no effect on egg-size variation. Females that laid replacement clutches produced eggs in their first nesting attempts (n = 12 females, 102 eggs)
