Yesterday forgot to mention that I gave a red-skinned and leaf-anatomy demonstration to about 20 teen-age members of a secondary class of Mrs. Mayorga at the Guillermo Hudson Commercial School in El Bolson. One boy in the class said he had found a red bat in a cherry tree and that it was carrying two youngs. Kovacek told him that the 2 young were always dead & q. # Cherries are ripe at the end of November, and this one was seen while picking cherries. Most people are familiar with red bats and when shown our specimens say that we have missed a bigger one that is "maroon" or "cinnamon" in color. Drove about 10km toward Epuyen looking for hot houses, then back to El Bolson and about half way to Bariloche. Stopped for the night at Lago Guillermo. 2400ft. Day: sunny, warm. Coolia is in a scrubby mixture of Notofagus, cedar, retamo (not the yellow-leaved shroom), wild strawberry, grass. A few partial clearings have two diggings; rocky gentle wooded, and incredibly light fluffy soil, set 35 traps, mostly around two feeding holes that looked old, and two tree traps. Heard one tree-call at dusk. Evening calm, temp. at 9:30 7°. One or more bats flying late dusk, maybe gracilin. Nov. 21 Nothing in traps. Morning calm clear, temps. at 6:30 0°, light frost and skin ofics on bucket. Drove to Bariloche, then to Estancia Fortini Chacabuco. Elderly German couple + Zimmerwalter, disillusioned with Argentina, no bats. Then to Estancia Alicura, run by Saurin Morelli, ALICURA They are in the midst of shearing, so the bats in the shearing shed are un- available, but he took us to an abandoned house about 2 km from his quarters where they were dropping, a good attic. This is in a grove of poplars, willows, locusts a few hundred meters from the bridge across Rio Caleufu and the Perito Moreno obelisk. Called at 60km SW San Martin de los Andes.
