“…One individual regurgitated a marsupial (Monodelphis americana) (Table 2), inside one of the pitfall traps. The available information indicates that it feeds mainly on mammals, but juveniles feed primarily on lizards (Morato 2005, Hartmann et al 2009b, Alencar 2010, Gaiarsa et al 2013. Most individuals found at the Etá Farm were juveniles (< 500 mm), found between June and September.…”

Approximately 140 snake species are known to occur in the Atlantic Forest with nearly half being endemic to this ecoregion. However, the Atlantic forest is one of the most threatened tropical ecoregions, with only 16% of its original area remaining as forest. This extensive habitat loss must have had a negative effect on its snake fauna. Indeed, 53% of the threatened snakes of Brazil occur in the Atlantic forest. Therefore, basic natural history information that can potentially contribute to the conservation of Atlantic forest snakes are urgently needed. Here the natural history of a snake assemblage at Etá Farm region, Sete Barras municipality, south-eastern Brazil is described, and a visual guide and an identification key provided that can be used by researchers and local people to identify snakes from this region. Most of the species found in the field use both open areas and forests, are primarily terrestrial, present diurnal activity, and include frogs in their diet. A higher number of enlarged follicles, eggs, and/or embryos were recorded during the warm and rainy season. Seventeen different types of defensive tactics were recorded in the species found in the field. This study provides useful information for understanding the structure of snake assemblages of the Atlantic Forest and is potentially useful for conservation assessments and for designing conservation plans.

“…A espécie é semi-arborícola e pode ter hábito tanto diurno como noturno (Marques et al, 2004;. Possui dieta especializada em lagartos, mas pode predar outras serpentes Alencar, 2010). Siphlophis longicaudatus apresentou número de indivíduos muito baixo no município de São Paulo, apontando maior sensibilidade em relação à qualidade do ambiente do que outras espécies amostradas (Barbo et al, 2011).…”

“…L izards are important components in the diets of snakes in the genus Oxyrhopus, representing almost 38% of prey items of some species (Alencar 2010). Duméril's False Coralsnake, Oxyrhopus clathratus Duméril, Bibron, and Duméril 1854, occurs in eastern South America (Bernardo et al 2012) and feeds on lizards and small mammals (Marques and Sazima 2004).…”
