| Shrnutí: | During 1990, 1991 and 1992 food habits of the green iguana were studied at "La Mancha", Veracruz. The most important items in the diet were plants (35 spp). In a seasonal diet analysis it was found that leaves of different species were the most important items (57.36%). Flowers (24.15%) and fruits (3.43%) were only eaten when they were available. Mostly all the plant species eaten are representatives of the tropical dry forest (74%) and the highest percentage were weeds (33%) and trees (30%). There was not a significant difference in the diet throughout the year. |
