Abstract: . Predation on young treefrogs (Osteocephalus taurinus) by arthropods (Insecta, Mantodea and Arachnida, Araneae) in Central Brazil. Biota Neotrop. 10(3): http://www.biotaneotropica.org.br/v10n3/en/abstract?shortcommunication+bn04310032010.Abstract: Praying mantis and spider species are common food items in the diet of several anuran species. Nevertheless, in this study we report the predation of young treefrogs Osteocephalus taurinus by two spider species, a Pisauridae and a Trechaleidae (Neoctenus sp.) and by… Show more

“…The bulk of species are found associated mostly with seasonal habitats south of the Amazon (e.g. Costa‐Pereira et al , ; Rodrigues & Cancello, ), except for Leptomiopteryx , which is known from the northeastern Amazon. However, Rodrigues & Cancello () cited an unidentified species of Leptomiopteryx from eastern Brazil, south of the Amazon.…”

“…Comportamiento. Como se ha reportado previamente en otras especies de mantis (Kral y Prete 2004;Agudelo-Rondón et al 2007;Costa-Pereira et al 2010;Brannoch et al 2017), P. hebardi se comporta como un predador pasivo que acecha a sus presas mimetizándose con el entorno gracias al camuflaje que posee (Kral y Prete 2004;Agudelo-Rondón et al 2007), ocupando una pequeña área de distribución mientras el suministro de presas sea relativamente constante (Gauthier 1997;Brannoch et al 2017). El hecho que las hembras de P. hebardi sean ápteras (Agudelo-Rondón et al 2007;Rivera et al 2011; Rivera y Svenson 2016), y posean un mayor tamaño y volumen corporal, hace que estas estén más preparadas para la predación.…”

“…Despite representing such a large proportion of prey, they were documented significantly more than would be expected based on their total number of articles within the scientific literature. Nevertheless, just like with spiders, this bias may also be due to the number of reviews dedicated to amphibians (Babangenge et al., 2019; Costa‐Pereira, Martins, Sczesny‐Moraes, & Brescovit, 2010; Jobe et al, 2019; Menin et al., 2005; Toledo, Ribeiro, & Haddad, 2007), and because nearly a third of all observations were obtained from Herpetological Review . Nevertheless, frogs are well known to be preyed upon by a wide range of predators, including carnivorous plants, and it has been stated that “practically anything will eat an amphibian” (Duellman & Trueb, 1994).…”
