Journal Meyer Phil 1972 Chaco Experimental Station 295 km NE Villa Hayes, Depto. Pto. Hayes, Paraguay 20 Sept one golden winged laparo released. Photo of iblagran. due to rain rd closed so departure delayed at least 24 hours. Walked to the trail leading thru woods at the NE corner of the NE cleared field & set 50 snay traps, all in heavy weeds. Checked 10 PM, caught 1 locust & 1 phyllosipe. weather clearing, cool (61°F). 21 Sept Traps run 6 AM, caught more abundant. Most are of the large brown type so common in-the field & I put up only a few of these seem to be uliginosus. Also caught a sample of a smaller, redder type, more grizzled about, which I put up in no obvious difference in habitat in which traps were placed. Fly time I did catch mice along the edge of the patches of laurel leaf. 4 traps set low in densely looking tree produced nothing. Weather partly cloudy, cool (low 70's). PM - Maali saw a couple of deer along the road. Say they often come out to sun after a rain. I rode & walked to lake & back by road. Wood of lake is different - long area of brushy, trashy, greasy stuff - should be trapped. Evening cold - in 50's.
