Abstract

Avian blood oxygen capacity (BOC: Vol. %) was measured by a modified Roughton - Scholander syringe method with regard to parameters of body weight and sex. Two samples, collected from the Richmond vicinity, were investigated: the domestic pigeon (Columba livia Gmelin) and 25 other bird species.
