REPRODUCTIVE TRAITS OF TWO HAPLOTYPES OF THE
ABSTRACT- Four hundred and two pairs of hares belonging to the mountain and brown haplotypes of the European hare Lepus europaeus Pallas, 1778 were raised in a farm lo-cated in central Italy over 4 years (from 2003 to 2006). The birth date, total number of young born, and number of surviving and wea...

The start of reproduction, birth-interval, length of the repro-ductive season, number of birth per pair per year, number of leverets per pair, number of weaned leverets per pair and number of weaned leverets per birth were analysed in relation to the different haplotypes and years; the incidence of superfetation and pseudogestation was also considered.
