SALCEDO-RIVERA, Gerson A.; FUENTES-MARIO, José A.  e  TOVAR-MARQUEZ, José. Predation of the frog Elachistocleis panamensis by the spider Ancylometes bogotensis : first record. Biota colombiana [online]. 2018, vol.19, n.2, pp.128-132. ISSN 0124-5376.  https://doi.org/10.21068/c2018.v19n02a11.

We record for the first time a predation event on a Panamá Humming Frog (Elachistocleis panamensis) by a Bogotá Giant Fishing Spider (Ancylometes bogotensis) in a tropical dry forest fragment in northern Colombia. We discuss aspects related to the predation behavior of A. bogotensis and some elements of E. panamensis as prey.
