Abstract

A study on the reproduction of M. laciniatus in Lake La Caldera during the ice-free period of the years 1975, 1976 and 1977 has been carried out. Values obtained as to sex ratio, production of spermatophores and eggs as well as fecundity and reproductive rates have allowed us to establish two well-differentiated periods in the breeding season of the population: Mechanisms which determine both periods and their possible adaptive value, are discussed.
