MARTIN, Gabriel M. e ARCHANGELSKY, Miguel. Contributions to the knowledge of Notiomys edwardsii (Thomas, 1890) in northwestern Chubut, Argentina. Mastozool. neotrop. [online]. 2004, vol.11, n.1, pp.91-94. ISSN 0327-9383.
A new locality and the analysis of stomach contents for the poorly known rodent Notiomysedwardsii (Thomas) is presented. The specimen was captured in a pitfall-drift fence trap located in a site with severe anthropogenic modifications close to the city of Esquel (Colonia Nahuel Pan, 42º57’ S, 71º10’ W), Department of Futaleufú, Province of Chubut (Argentina). External and craneomandibular measurements of the specimen are compared with those in the literature. Remains of a scorpion (Scorpiones: Bothriuridae) and several tipulid (Diptera: Tipulidae) larvae were found in the stomach, confirming that the species relies heavily on a diet of arthropods.
