Abstract
Predation of Bats by the Barn Owl (Tyto alba) in Italy - The examination of Barn Owl (Tyto alba) pellets collected in northern Italy (Lombardia region, PO valley) has revealed the presence of a number much higher than usual (0.03-0.26%) of bat remains (2.37%). Enclosed is a tentative explanation of the relatively high frequence of the presence of bats of the genus Pipistrellus in Barn Owl pellets.
