Teius Teyou (Four-toed Tegu). Predation. - Q3 (H Index: 28)
Teius teyou is a medium-sized lizard with a wide distribution in Argentina, specifically in the phytogeographical region of Monte and Chaco Forest (Abdala et al. 2012. Cuad. Herpetol. 26:215?248).

| Sumario: | Teius teyou is a medium-sized lizard with a wide distribution in Argentina, specifically in the phytogeographical region of Monte and Chaco Forest (Abdala et al. 2012. Cuad. Herpetol. 26:215?248). Records of predators of this species do not exist; however, these lizards are probably common prey for snakes (Cei 1993. Reptiles del Noroeste, Nordeste y Este de la Argentina. Herpetofauna de las Selvas Subtropicales, Puna y Pampas. Mus. Reg. Sci. Nat. Torino. 945 pp.). Here we report direct evidence of predation on T. teyou by the Red-backed Hawk, Geranoaetus polyosoma. |
