| Abstract (English): |
Snakes are common predators of birds. However, reported cases of snake predation on Troglodytes musculus are scarce. Here, we report a predation attempt of a Troglodytes musculus nestling by the dipsadid snake Philodryas olfersii. We also present a list with bird species recorded as prey of this snake species. We found 25 predation events of P. olfersii on adult, juvenile, and nestling birds. A total of 19 bird species from 14 families have been reported as prey of P. olfersii. Most predation events occurred on the vegetation, while some others were observed on the ground, cage, and artificial nest. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |

Aqui, relatamos uma tentativa de predação de um filhote de Troglodytes musculus pela serpente Philodryas olfersii. Também apresentamos uma lista de espécies de aves registradas como presas dessa espécie de serpente. Encontramos 25 eventos de predação de P. olfersii sobre aves adultas, juvenis e filhotes. Um total de 19 espécies de aves pertencentes a 14 famílias foram relatadas como presas de P. olfersii. A maioria dos eventos de predação ocorreu na vegetação, enquanto alguns outros foram observados no solo, gaiola e ninho artificial. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
