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...

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.
