A report on male Anolis sagrei saurophagy in Chiayi County, Taiwan
No full textFive hundred and two Brown anoles (Anolis sagrei) were collected for stomach content analysis from an area surrounding a plant nursery (23°25'51''N, 120°28'30''E) in Santzepu, Sheishan District, Chiayi County, as part of an ongoing study on this invasive species in Taiwan. The stomachs of five A. sagrei males contained vertebrate prey, which were isolated for identification to establish a basis upon which future studies can be based. These prey were identified as three hatchlings of A. sagrei, a Hemidactylus frenatus hatchling, and a skink hatchling - most likely that of Sphenomorphus indicus. The results of this study seems to indicate that male A. sagrei saurophagy is more likely in cleared open habitats, with no ground cover, than in habitats with ground covering
