Body size of spruce-galling adelgids is positively related to realized fecundity in nature

Here, relationships between body size and realized fecundity in nature are reported for two adelgid species, Pineus pinifoliae (Fitch) and P. similis (Gill.) (Homoptera: Adelgidae), which are sessile and deposit a single egg mass.
