Documentation shows Northern Eyelash Boa predated on amphibian in Canandé Reserve, highlighting its feeding ecology.
We report the first documented case of the Northern Eyelash Boa (Tropidophis boulengeri) predating on an amphibian (Craugastor longirostris) in the wild in Canandé Reserve, Esmeraldas Province, Ecuador. This new record was obtained in a tropical humid forest, contributing new information about the species’ feeding ecology and providing evidence of amphibian predation in the wild.
