Abstract

Habitat prcfercncc of two sympatric otter species (Aonyx capensis and Lutra muculicollis) was defined recording sprainting sites along the banks of three rivers. The use of the riverine habitats was similar between the otter species and stretches of river characterized by emerging rocks, either covered or uncovered by vegetation, were particularly selected. Nevertheless, the sprainting sites of both species were located where dense vegetation cover occurred in the surrounding of the site (within 2 m radius).
