Os hábitos alimentares de Urotrygon microphthalmum, uma espécie Criticamente Em Perigo (CR), foram investigados através de análise de conteúdo estomacal de espécimes capturados no arrasto duplo com portas no estado de Pernambuco, Brasil, entre março de 2010 e março de 2012. Um total de 338 estômagos foram analisados e 31 item alimentares foram identificados na dieta de U. microphthalmum. A espécie ingere principalmente camarões. A dieta entre machos e fêmeas não foi diferente e não foi observada mudança ontogenética na dieta. O nível trófico estimado da espécie é 3,5, classificando-a como consumidora de segunda ordem.
