Fish Buffet: Dietary Observations in the Oman Saw‐Scaled Viper (Echis omanensis), with a Review of Fish‐Eating Vipers

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
We present the first records of the arid‐adapted Oman saw‐scaled vipers feeding on fish. Apon further review we identified 14 fish‐eating vipers globally. These findings suggest that fish may be more common in the diets of vipers than realized, although still rare, and likely to be region‐ or season‐specific prey.
