description | ABSTRACT. The use of resources (diet, time of activity and microhabitat) by Elachistocleis pearsei in a locality of the department of Sucre is described. The non-invasive method used to obtain the digestive tract content showed high effectivity. Results show that this species is an active specialist forager that principally ingests ants, nevertheless diet composition is diverse; its activity is limited to the outskirts of the water source and increases in the season of higher precipitation.
RESUMEN. Se describe el uso de recursos: dieta, tiempo de actividad y microhábitat, por la especie Elachistocleis pearsei en una localidad del departamento de Sucre. El método no invasivo utilizado para extraer el contenido estomacal mostró alta efectividad. Los resultados indican que la especie es una forrajera activa y especialista que consume mayormente hormigas, aunque la composición de su dieta es más amplia; su actividad se limita a los alrededores del cuerpo de agua e incrementa en temporada de alta precipitación |
