Location: Two climatically contrasting Mediterranean areas: Layna, located in the centre of the Iberian Peninsula and with a continental Mediterranean climate, and Cabo de Gata, located in the south-western Iberian Peninsula and with a semi-arid climate. Breeding Skylarks and Short-toed Larks occur in Layna, whereas breeding Thekla Larks and Lesser Short-toed Larks occur in Cabo de Gata. Methods: During the study period between 1991-95 in Layna and between 1991-94 and 1996-97 in Cabo de Gata, searches were carried out for nests of the four species and laying date, measured egg-length and width, and hatching asynchrony recorded. Overall, 118 nests of Skylarks, 165 of Short-toed Larks, 334 of Thekla Larks and 259 of Lesser Short-toed Larks were studied.
