Abstract
AGUILAR-LOPEZ, José Luis; PINEDA, Eduardo and LURIA-MANZANO, Ricardo. Predation on three species of herps by spiders in the tropical region of Veracruz, Mexico. Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2014, vol.85, n.3, pp.966-968. ISSN 2007-8706. https://doi.org/10.7550/rmb.43649.
Three predation events of herps by spiders in different sites of Veracruz, Mexico are reported. These observations represent the first reports of predation by spiders of the families Ctenidae and Theraphosidae on the anuran Craugastor pygmaeus (family Craugastoridae), the lizard Scincella cherriei (Scincidae) and the snake Ninia sebae (Colubridae).
