Abstract
We carried out observations on reproduction of eight breeding pairs of Butorides striatus fuscicollis nesting in the Zoological Experimental Station of Santa Fe city during spring-summer 1989-1990. Twenty-six eggs were layed, 20 hatched and 19 fledglings were produced. The hatching time was 21 days and the nestling stayed in the nest 14 days.
