The analysis of a pellet from a Montpellier Snake Malpolon monspessulanus indicated predation of an adult Avocet Recurvirostro avosetta in the Punta de la Banya (Delta de I'Ebre) during spring 7994. There is a general lack of informafion on the diet of Montpellier Snakes at this site, buf this record confirms that they may prey on colonial waterbirds breeding there, not only on chicks, buf even on adults.
