Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Reproduction, Growth and Development in Two Species of Cloud Forest Peromyscus From Southern Mexico
An examination of data for 16 members of the genus indicates that litter weight, expressed as a percentage of adult weight, shows a strong negative correlation with adult body weight. This suggests a decrease in reproductive effort with increase in body size, which may secondarily be related to habitat stability.
