Experimental ponds were used as a model system of habitat patches to study the effect of habitat size on the relative growth performance of tadpoles of Bufo americanus and Pseudacris triseriata, and on colonization by predatory insects. Three pond depths and surface areas were habitat size treatment
Females and males of three tree species did not differ in growth or mortality over an interval of 9.5 years. Comparing between sexes and across species, there was no consistent pattern of effects of short-term (1 year) growth and fecundity on longer-term gorwth or mortality. Effects of size were sig
