The best sampling of the Tola study area probably is a pretty good representative sample. The area itself looks almost entirely the
murugymops (or Tutuplochim) found near the tent. Noteworthy is the absence
of rocks and the presence of tucos-tucos and their prodigious tunnels and huge "home ranges". On the hills above Chellapalea (north and east) are lots of Quebracho, as well as above the pass to Cincuroaca (at least 15,000 ft.). Weird!
