Amphisbaena alba is one of the most common herps at Alto Mayo valley (870- 900 m NN), related to Atta ant nests. We have weekly sightings and try to train our workers not to kill those animals. In my opinion, A. alba might feed also on giant earth worms and is possibly a prey of a large local Micrurus species. Until now, I saw only adults during the past 30 years- never juveniles. This species is also present in the Tropical Dry Forest belt of the Huallaga Central (Juan Guerra, 12 km south of Tarapoto).
