We compared the average size (length) between fish and amphibian prey using the nonparametric Wilcoxon test (because the data did not meet assumptions for parametric analyses) and performed a simple linear regression to assess the relationship between prey size and snake SVL (with both variables log-transformed).

Relationship between prey size and snake size ( SVL ) for E . miliaris from the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest.
These observations suggest that information on the relationship between prey size and snake gape size and Gape index = 7t(jaw length)(jaw width)/4. eqn 2 the relationship between gape size (or a correlate of gape size ) and snake body size could be used to predict A total of 114 prey (fish and salamanders) were recov- maximum prey size - snake size allometry. Such predic- ered from 86 individual ...

The analysis of van den Burg (2020) did not include snake body size and the size and number of prey ingested by E . miliaris . The wide distribution of E . miliaris also allows for testing geographic variation in its food habits, which is little known for Neotropical snakes in general.
Of the 30 species sampled from literature, snakes that exhibit ontogenetic shifts in prey size have a greater magnitude of change in SVL than species that have telescoping prey size patterns.
Foraging mode, relative prey size and diet breadth
This information included snake taxonomy (genus or species), foraging mode, average, minimum, maximum and range of RPM ( and the number of prey measured), average SVL , and diet taxonomic composition (proportion of prey types [see above] in the diet of a species and prey sample size to categorize diet).
