Abstract

Certhiaxis cinnamomeus and Furnarius figulus are birds belonging to the Furnariidae family that occupy different habitats associated with the aquatic environment in all regions of Brazil. The diet of these birds consists mainly of invertebrate animals. Individuals of C. cinnamomeus and F. figulus were occasionally recorded foraging on Salvinia auriculata plants and preying on larvae of Samea multiplicalis, in the marginallagoons to the Rio das Mortes, Campos das Vertentes region, Minas Gerais,being the first report of this interaction.
