An opportunist predator hidden in the vegetation: on the predation of birds by Philodryas olfersii (Serpentes: Dipsadidae)
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021-01-01)
Snakes are common predators of birds. However, reported cases of snake predation on Troglodytes musculus are scarce. Here, we report a predation attempt of a Troglodytes musculus nestling by the dipsadid snake Philodryas ...
Masting has different effects on seed predation by insects and birds in antarctic beech forests with no influence of forest management
(Elsevier Science, 2017-09)
Mast seeding is characteristic of many long-lived tree species and widely proposed as a mechanism to reduce seed predation. However, whether the efficiency of this reproductive response may vary depending on type of seed ...
Predation of pale-breasted thrush eggs by the ariel toucan in brazil: failure of the anti-predatory strategy
(Acta Biol?gica Colombiana, 2021)
Predation of hilltopping horse-flies (Tabanidae) by birds in Brazil

Breeding southern house wrens exhibit a threat-sensitive response when exposed to different predator models
(Springer Tokyo, 2017-10)
We assessed the ability of southern house wrens (Troglodytes aedon musculus) to recognize and discriminate different birds of prey. We exposed nesting birds to stuffed specimens of two sympatric predator species, the ...
Evaluating the potential impact of bird predation on the SW Atlantic fiddler crab Leptuca uruguayensis
(Springer, 2019-09)
The southernmost permanent population of the fiddler crab Leptuca uruguayensis occurs along the Samborombón Bay (36°22′S, 56°45′W, Argentina), an important feeding site for many bird species, including ruddy turnstones ...
Granivorous birds as potentially important post-dispersal seed predators in a Brazilian forest fragment
(Associação Tropical Biology Inc, 2004-09-01)
In tropical forests, rodents exert a prominent role as post-dispersal seed predators, while other vertebrates apparently have a minor effect on seed predation. In some forest fragments in southeast Brazil, however, the ...
