Abstract
Zammuto (R. M. Zammuto. 1986. Can. J. Zool. 64: 2739–2749) analyzed life-history traits among North American game birds and concluded that there was an inverse relationship between clutch size and longevity, independent of body mass. Problems with his selection of species, method of comparison, and estimate of longevity are pointed out, and it is suggested that his conclusion was premature.
