摘要: In this note we describe for the first time inner structure of bezoars found in stomach a free-living crested porcupine. These foreign bodies were composed by three concentric layers made up vegetal matter. The presence nettle trichomes central core, probably due to an accidental ingestion, may have determined development these bodies.
