Abstract/Contents:"Adults and nymphs of Neocurtilla hexadactyla (Perty), Scapteriscus abhreviatus Scudder, S. Vicinus Scudder, S. Tenuis Scudder, S. Acletus Rehn, and Hebard (=S. Borellii Giglio-Tos) were field collected in São Paulo, Brazil, and dissected to determine the food present in their digestive tracts. Both S. Vicinus and S. Abbreviatus were found to be primarily plant feeders, while S. Acletus and N. hexadactyla were found to consume plant and animal material in approximately equal proportions. The diet of S. Acletus was dominated by animal materials. The results of this analysis are compared with published studies of mole cricket diets in the Caribbean and the United States, all of which deal with mole cricket species introduced from South America."
