Table 1. A in Biometrics, sexing and moulting of Snow Finch Montifringilla nivalis in Central Italy

Table 1. A summary of biometrics for Snow Finches (juveniles and older birds, males and females) ringed in this study in Campo Imperatore, in the Gran Sasso Laga National Park (Central Italy), showing mean + standard deviation (SD), the number of birds (n), and the range for each category of measurement.For bill length and bill depth, data were available for only three and one sexed juveniles, respectively, and these data were therefore omitted.
