Summary:Territorial pair density and breeding density of long-tailed skuas at Scoresby Sund were studied in 1973 and 1974 at Kap Stewart and in 1975 at Kaerelv, Gåseelv and Ugleelv. Territorial pair density fluctuated from 0.2 pairs per km² at Kap Stewart in 1974 to 0.9 pairs per km² at Ugleelv in 1975. Breeding density fluctuated from 0 in all areas visited in 1974 to 0.6 pairs per km² at Ugleelv in 1975.
