Diet of tadpoles from a pond in Iguazu National Park, Argentina

Gut contents of anuran larva (Elachistocleis bicolor, Chaunus schneideri, Odontophrynus americanus, Scinax fuscovarius, and S. granulatus) that coexist in a semi-permanent waterbody from Iguazú National Park (Misiones, Argentina) was analyzed. Our objective was analyse the gut contents of different...

Elachistocleis bicolor (obligate-suspension-feeder) it presents only planktonic algae in its gut (92%). In gut of S. fuscovarius and S. granulatus (nektonic) planktonic algae were abundant, especially in the rainy season (14 and 41%). The guts of C. schneideri and O. americanus (benthic) showed sediments (55% and 17.5%) and vegetable fibers (33 and 61%). The largest particle size (≤ 100 μm) was found in the guts of C. schneideri and the smallest (≤ 25 μm) in O. americanus and E. bicolor. 2007 https://bibliotecadigital.exactas.uba.ar/collection/paper/document/paper_0717652X_v71_n1_p8_Echeverria http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12110/paper_0717652X_v71_n1_p8_Echeverria
