About this title

Synopsis

Les rapaces nocturnes consomment de grandes quantit�s de micromammif�res dont ils rejettent les os et les poils sous forme de pelotes de r�gurgitation. Par leur contenu, ces pelotes pr�sentent des int�r�ts multiples: enrichissement de l''inventaire faunique d''une r�gion (taxonomie), meilleures connaissances des habitudes de chasse des pr�dateurs, utilisation en taphonomie (science de la fossilisation et de l''enfouissement). Apr�s une pr�sentation des rapaces nocturnes et de leur nutrition et un r�sum� des travaux ant�rieurs, l''auteur expose les r�sultats du travail effectu�. Il ressort de cette �tude des diff�rences de r�gimes alimentaires entre les genres Bubo et Tyto, ainsi qu''au sein m�me du groupe des Bubo. L''�tude de la digestion des incisives confirme l''appartenance de Tyto alba � la cat�gorie 1 de pr�dateurs (digestion nulle � l�g�re) �tablie par Andrews [1], mais situe Bubo africanus et Bubo lacteus plus proches l''un de l''autre que ne les situaient Andrews, et plut�t en cat�gorie 2 (digestion mod�r�e). L''auteur met aussi en avant une diff�rence de repr�sentation osseuse entre le groupe des Tyto et celui des Bubo.
