Resumen:
PHYMATURUS EXTRILIDUS. PREDATION. Although it is knownthat avian scavengers will consume lizards (Jiménez 1995. Hornero14:1?9), here we report the first record of an avian scavengerconsuming Phymaturus extrilidus. This is only the second recordof a confirmed predator of P. extrilidus (Lobo et al. 2012. Copeia2012:12?22). At 1350 h on 26 November 2013, we observed anadult Andean Matamico (Phalcoboenus megalopterus) flying witha dead specimen in its beak over the canyon Aguada de la Homein the Reserva Natural de Uso Multiple Don Carmelo, Ullum Department,San Juan Province, Argentina (30.94871°S, 69.08233°W,WGS 84; 3122 m elev.).We thank R. E. Beninato for confirming the identification ofthis lizard.
