Resumo

Muitas aves se alimentam de caranguejos-violinista, mas as relações ecológicas entre a Minuca osa e seus predadores aviários são pouco conhecidas. Os três primeiros casos documentados de predação de M. osa pelo íbis-branco, Eudocimus albus, são relatados: em 3 de junho de 2021, bem como em 10 e 25 de novembro de 2022 no Golfo de Montijo, Veraguas, Panamá. O exame das fezes de E. albus confirmou a interação predador-presa.
