GARZON-SANTOMARO, César; CABRERA, Leovigildo e RAMIREZ-JARAMILLO, Salomón M.. Ecological interactions between Ochraceous Attila and Buenaventura lizard: recording of new food habits in the south of the Ecuador. Huitzil [online]. 2020, vol.21, n.2, e605. Epub 17-Out-2022.

Food gathering strategies and their interactions contribute significantly to the know ledge of the ecological and evolutionary relationships of fauna. We report an observation of predatory behavior of Ochraceous Attila (Attila torridus) on the Buenaventura lizard (Anadia buenaventura), in the Buenaventura Reserve, El Oro province, Ecuador. On 12 November 2015, an adult of A. torridus was photographed carrying an adult A. buenaventura in its beak, after accommodating the lizard in its beak, the bird was lost in the vegetation, which was approximately 5 m in height. Although the consumption of its prey was not observed, it is assumed that it was devoured. The documentation of this event expands the knowledge of the natural history of this endemic species.
