Abstract

Some arthropods groups produce substantial mortality in some vertebrate populations and have complex ecological interspecific interactions with vertebrates. Amphibians are preyed by invertebrates at all life stages, however no invertebrate species is recognized as specialist predator of this group. This short communication reports the predation of anuran by a centipede.
