Abstract

Details are given for four breeding records of the Freckled Duck Stictonetta naevosa. Aspects of the habitats that seem important for breeding are noted. For three records, nests are described and clutch-size and measurements of eggs are given. An incubation period of thirty-six days is given for one clutch. Notes on behaviour are also presented. There was no evidence of a pair-bond between incubating birds and other Freckled Ducks near the nests.
