Koford 28 Journal Peru. 5 September 1967 Mr. Moccope, Dots. Lanbayaque, fewer, and other birds. We collected a few, 10t snowy (?) egrets in past near Zana (ruins of old brick and adobe church there). Returned to camp area and set 32 live traps and some (4,10) snap traps on hammocks. I caught a small cord snake at foot of sand hill. Windy afternoon and evening, with fog to W. Mud funnel nests in trees in Cayalti area. I checked traps about 10 p.m. and found many Mus, but no other species. 6 September 1967. My catch was 7 live Mus (in 17 traps) and 2 dead (in 10 snap traps). Yet area appeared like Paroloyea habitat, + more with lit-tled scrub grazed. Abundant fruit on zapote, including ground. Some copes bushes. Put up only one Mus; others discarded (7-11gms.). No Mus appear- ently lurking now. I found large variid like lizard shell. Shot a few fast-running lizards - some 200 between clumps bushes. Hard to see when not moving. We also collected a few of lizard with small skin pocket in shoulder and tendency toward fringe on toes + cyclists. I departed early afternoon, drove to Trujillo for supplies, then over four miles + camped in Doto Ancash sandy zone. Foggy + drizzly at night. 1 km. N. 12 km. E. of Pariacoto Zana 7 September 1967. Hamilton and I drove on to Caras, then on up Huaras road 85 km. to approx. 8500 ft., our former camp in area of rock walls and brush. Now drier than before, and few of the red-flamed wine-shrub in bloom, + fewer hummingbirds, but no livers took now. Swifts flying over. Trioman (D. pontensis) present in dry open brush areas. I checked traps + experimented with white from open brush wing bars. We both set traps. I set 38, including 12 of the tin-can live traps, up a broad drawling ladder, at foot old fragments of rock walls with bushes growing on or near them, and across mod. open brush slope (W. aspect about 20%, large gowl + occasional rocks).
