Pleasure 1971 Aug 18 Papa Leon Tree, Dept - of Lima. Left Lima about 3:30pm after 3 days of stupid negotiations re. a "fianza" for the car so we can go to Chilo etc. Numerous conferences with auto club, bourse etc. Finally arranged a guarantee with Banco Popular (200,000 soles). Left Bob Jones in - numbered dolphin & seal stable with Batacero's (700 caillons) for packing and shipping. Teo with Manuel Perez yesterday. He says it has been a wet winter. Camped in the canyon above Papa Leon Tree. Lots of green. Numerous small moths flying at dusk, numerous big Helminth moths, leaf crickets, saw fots, probably the larger one, who was squeaking up to about 50 feet. Saw night howler. Drizzle continuous; didn't see the sun once in 3 days in Lima. White moths feeding on tobacco. Carol saw humming Aug 19 Wet drizzle all or most of night; plastic bowls left out had several tablespoons of water in each. Heard barn owl during night. Drip off car collected over one bowl (2 cups) of water in 30 minutes. Drove to the study area south of Chilo at 10:30, wee drizzle most of way. The ground on study area was quite wet, damp down to more than 4 miles. Rope or something had wandered over much of the area. Garden #1 of weighed plants was near a disturbed area, and I'm not sure we found it but weighed plants anyhow.

leason 1971 Left camp about 7 a.m., and ground up the valley, through the 1st gorge. Truck very tired and had to make running starts and get out and push simultaneously. Shopping and photoring in charming Alca, then on up over the divides (15,000 ft). Truck couldn't make it over top so an hour or more delay while I cleared filter and re-set the points (which fixed got things considerably). Finally over the top, AK and APP with swocks. Lots of rich country, much of it beautifully grazed with alpacas, llamas, and sheep. Fellth if any Festuca arthophylla and no tola, almost no yaritos, Saw-mouse cross the road. Lots of Bolivian geese, some lofewingz, gulls, ibises. One swoopjay lake-wooden had 100 ? geese feeding on it (impairs?) and apparently courting. Saw no turacos although second good for Notothorax.

Aug 22 Clouded up over next. a.m. 44°. My traps held 8 Calomys. Ante had 6 traps out and caught 2 Calomys. Drive to Huevo for level, then down to the Rio Uretero where we camped at 9000 ft in cactus-scrub near the river (more muddy). The land west and south of Huevego is heavily used; fields wherever possible, grazing by sheep + cows + burros. I put out small Shermons among walls & boulders, opuntia, tall cholla cactus, thorn bushes, other shrubs, and

Cruzo different, probably because a center because of the proximity of large areas of level land low enough for cultivation. Aug. 28 off for machu picchu by train at 7 a.m. around 11 a.m. and reconsters for trafficking possibilities and for solanaceae. Everything rather dry, in fact the only water was in the four brooklets up in the larger trce, and because of the extreme steepness of the slopes we were only able to reach one good brooklet and - a couple of small or half dried ones. The good one contained water, debris, assorted spiders, [illegible] damsel, etc., plus one big dark indescrict earthworm. just before dark set 46 small folding thermans baited with crumbled sugar. Most sets were on the bouldered brushy slope along the ruins (south). Vegetation was bamboo, orchids, bracken ferns, assorted shrubs waist to shoulder high, dry scattered cobwebs along a boulders, a little grass. Pretty dry, woody-green trees well. Aug 29 picked up traps at 6:30 am, not one tawled. Trace of dew, but temperatures mild, even at night. Looked at Inca ruins and climbed to top of Humay Picchu, flipping rocks looking for solanaceae. Only zoogeol find was vampire bat dropping in a dark cave-like room under the tower in the ruins. Left for Cruzo 3:15 and 6:30. Gezards outof Humay Picchu,

aug.30 having arranged to do shiffling today (monday) we found that it was a fiesta day, and couldn't even get car greased x stained slides etc. visited Sacahuaman. aug.31 left about 9 a.m. ad drove too between Santa Rosa Chupinbanvilla and camped on a flat bunch-grass plain. Stopped for lunch about 2 p.m. near a stream heated by hot springs. Numerous Cavia tschudii running among large bunches of a very spring grass, caught a large &. Violaena under a stone, he was warmish and bit, but saw none outside in spite of the fact that it was sunny; altitude about 13,000'. Much threshing activity between Vres and above Cheocylpe. Biggest change from previous trips is the large number of cattle at both low and high altitudes. Cows where I would have expected alpacas or sheep. sept.1 night clear + cold; 15°F at sunrise. Drove to share with various stops for fishing (more) shiffling, and car lubrication in juvosa. Camped about 2 miles up river from share under dry large-plumed fields. sept.2 night clear, light frost, temp 6 am 32°F. Drove to the school teacher cluster of huts about 10 miles from flow, but nobody could tell me anything of the fate of the students in my photo of 1955, although the teacher still lives next to the school (but he wasn't home).. stopped at the campsite in the gorge of

Vegetation here is about an equal mixture of Festuca orthophylla, Salsidophyllum quadrangulare, another yellow-flowered but open- leafed Tola (more abundant than quadrangulare), lots of Pagenophyl- llum, a few tiny spiny Margynoporus or Tetraglochin only a few inches tall, and a sprinkling of heavily grazed short grasses. Ctenonup is here, eating branches of its Salsidophyllum; Puna mineræ, ducks. Left camp at 10, which was 1 mile of Challapalca and the Rio Mauri. Many two-twoes between there and the divide, auto air, with drifting sand in places. The divide is really double, both about 15,400 ft and 8 miles apart. The eastern pass is almost totally barren, much good garreta between the two. Saw one vicuña and some droppings; no tixanusa or vicuña. Lots of yard Tola + Festuca east of the passes.

arrived Tarata about 1:30 p.m. It has been "occupied" by the army, which will make finding a headquarters difficult. Sept 4 morning at Tarata looking for a house to rent, no luck. Then drove up the hill to our old camping place that we used to call 1.2 miles N. Tarata. From there that cooler more like 2 miles N. Elevation still due north (collected straight by Southern Cross). Photo of humming flowers in bloom and at least 4 species of humming birds here. Phil D.

Started and left comp at 10 a.m. to return to Tarata to negotiate for a house, all day negotiating ... and meeting. Left 7 more negotiating, then off to Taena to talk to the owner of the house I am close; Sr. Daniel Sarala, who turns out to be an aged man in a busy room furnished with shiny vinyl furniture, black velvet painting on the wall, a shiny porcelain mule on the coffee table Buenedito. Stopped at the Taena mercado etc, left it 5 p.m., crossed a couple of miles north in Tillfordia desert, set one foto trap (tiny foto croco everywhere) and about 25 museum specials just before dark.. A Prof. Gran? and his wife, encountered in the middle of the Tillordia at noon, on a effort on Broncoloto, says this is the type location of this Tillordia, but more are in bloom. Left 8 night cold, breeze from north. We are 3 mi N Taena. The Tillordia, narrower leaved and tighter packed than Bolfelia, are in very distinct crescents diming south. Our campsite pitches down slightly toward the south, but a mile to the South of me the crescents still aim south uphill.

Lots of arthropod holes in the ground, mostly empty, but a few with spiders, dead beetles, and one with 1/2 live goblins. Dead small snake common, 2 live snake tracks to side of a rusty oil drum. Goblins not uncommon under tin etc at trash heaps. Lots of tiny foot tracks, large dog track, Burhinus tracks (rare). Under clump of Tillandsia we found only a few spiders; I saw no silverfish here although Carol saw some yesterday a little further up the road. Found one large scorpion tail, Carol saw a hummingbird. Fox droppings contained mostly scorpion, snail shell, mouse legs, hair, and one unidentified small rodent.

oatmeal, 2 large Sherman's, and 2 steel traps. The pump to large Shermans were at a road-retaining wall where there was a large accumulation of croco- sized droppings. All sets were at times below road or retaining walls. Jacklighting at 8 pm saw nothing, but one of the big Shermans had a big Abrocana in it. ants put out museum specials and small Shermans at Queva dumps and rocky places. Sept. 11 Night clear + calm. -4° inside car at 6 a.m., ice in bucket. ants caught 1 audisump, 3 lb. magister, 1 lb. darvini, and 2 Bolomys berlefschii - all except 1 Bolomys in museum specials. I caught darvini, magister, all sky shining. The darvini looks like rupestria. Sunny all day. Put out 25 large Shermans along road walls below camps, bailed most with cracked corn + oats + Scidophyllum blossoms. Also left the Abrocana trap in place, and the pit traps. A few feet from the Abrocana trap this morning was a Ph. magister and this evening at 8 pm a Bolomys berlefschii was in the Abrocana trap in the wall. Sept 12 My traps held 7 mice: 1 Bolomys berlefschii (in to Abrocana trap) Ph. darvini, Ph. magister. Visible tracks in the road below camps. ants with 20 large Shermans among "natural" rocks, gravels etc north of the pampa caught 1 Bolomys and 1 darvini. Temp inside car in my sleeping bag at 6 a.m. was -6°, temp outside -2°, ice in pots.

camp is at the edge of a "pampa" on a narrow ridge (4 km wide) between two very steep deep canyons. In the center of the ridge is a sloping, almost bare "field" with nothing growing more than a couple quirlis tall, perhaps 4 acres. Around it is a Polylepis "forest" - really bushes up to 10 feet tall but some with "trunks" up to 6 or 8" diam. and big enough to attract woodcutters. These are clearly dominant, bare + gravelly + stoney in between them, but with numerous flowering Lefidophyllum quadrangulare, also cushion cacti, orange flower Banksia buxus tiny grass tufts, low Ephedra, a flush droplet dandelions (in bloom), and a grey hairy all very dry and barely grazed. On both the north and south faces of the ridge are more bushes of composites, the red-ribbed Pterogyne flower etc., plus green clumps, less heavily grazed. The seemingly barren pampa is heavily used by llamas, vicuña, and a large lizard lives under a loaf-sized rock in the middle of it. At the upper edge of it too a few small yarcas come in. Sift at 1 pm for was arizos. Polylepis goes much higher, not much bowlgrass. Then over the first summit and camped at 13 km NE Tarato, 14,700 ft amidst gorgeous yarcas - Lefidophyllum garden at base of an igneous cliff. Put out 25 large slumons baited with oats + corn + Lefidophyllum blossoms + Sereno blossoms. ants put out 40 large slumons among big boulders.

One trap with a mouse in it in the dry rock had been pestered by a fox. Three sets of fox droppings contained respectively phyllotus, wisaka fur (or alworm?), and pure mule berries poorly digested. Spent the day quantifying plants. Used every other stake of the grid as a reference point (=45 samples). To avoid trampled space around the stakes (left up by rock cairns) we measured diagonally 1.5m and dropped nearest the 1m² heap with its perp sidey 1.5m, from the stake.

On the same diagonal, a board was erected 4m from the stake. The board was divided into 3 "altitude": 1/2 m, 1 m, and 1.8 m. Sightting at the board from the stake at respectively 1/4m eye level, 3/4 m, and 1 1/2 m, the percent of each board section observed by vegetation was estimated. Within the hoop the % of ground covered by vegetation was estimated, broken down into the dominant three species plus a total coverage. Finally, the number of hideyholes within 2.2m of the stake were counted. A hideyhole is a dark safe retreat where a mouse could not be reached by people or pets.

Below the study area a shallow ditch has been dug and contains 10 or 20 gallons of water.

The study area at 10 kms Tarata, 10,001 ft, is about as low as seems profitable to study; any lower is too barren. It consists of two habitats: dry wash (3/4 station) and upland (6 5 stations). The rocky river bottom contains tobacco, broad-leaved shrub, some other bushes, a few cacti, and a few scattered plants such as tomatoes, One patch of wolfe (no fruits). The upland was columnar cactus (yellow flowers), crumble-leaves bush, berberis-leaved thorn scrub, and a few other bushes, plus lesser herbs such as capsulated animals, breaks-off weed, the radchik succulent from the tillarde's desert, dwarf Tillardia, and, especially on the upper rows, a few tufts of grass, cello Hobernal joint cactus (orange flowers), [illegible]. Two departures from "natural" are a stone retaining wall below the road near one corner of the grid, and the presence of a distinct network of grazing tracks on the hillside. Another complication is the water hole a half-kilometer downriver. The location is at about km 62 from Tacna. The tobacco, broad-leaved shrub, and tomato look vigorous, but the cacti, in spite of blooms, look in sad shape and the crumbly-leaved plant practically dead (except in a few spots where it may have received water). The red-flowered mistletoe looked healthy. Returned to Tarata in PM. Sept 21 Tarata Sept 22 Tarata. Lots of hummer activity around the big red-flowered bush at the big rocks south of town at dusk 3 o'clock. Too many Bibitzers to set traps.

It includes quite a bit of Aseguia and some long-abandoned terraces, but only about 30 meters of good mouse wall on the study area. Several Ziolaemus alticolor seen around camp and a few on the area. Most of the area is on top of the ridge (here about 400 m wide), but rows E and F are on the steep north-west facing slope. Evening calm, clear, no wind, moon 3 or 4 days old. Sat. Sept. 25 Minimin 31° F. Breeze came up during night, blowing down canyon from the east. Ran traps at 6 a.m.: 13 mice (including a mojaveer that escaped without tagging at 8:17. One set of foot? droppings contained bird feather, mouse hair, grass, a few large fragments of bone, cactus ? skin. Saw only 1 lizard all day, a S. alticolor, at 5 set under the cliffs off the Aseguia a half mile and started a core to see if humming butter entered; 6 or 8 flew up canyon and kept right going, many other birds also flew up canyon at dusk. Put about 10 large stamens south of camp to pick up home range of tagged individuals for line and wings. Ants put 38 M S and 4 stamens up the Aseguia in green grassy and then rocky. Drove up the hill in afternoon to get fed for cactus abrocana. First Polylepis at 12,000 ft., first appreciable Sapindophyllum quadrangulata at a pass at 12,600 ft.

5 Ph. holosericea and 1 calodorus undulus. In PM did plant census of grid. The hoop samples do not represent fairly the importance of the straight-leafed smelly Serena nor the crisped leafed smelly Serena, also possibly slightly Nototriche under busher. Oct. 4 Full moon, clear, calm, min. 9 F. Ph. darwini in wire cage in car with yucca seeds and twig of all local plants died. Bird traps caught 1 darwini. While running bird traps, saw 4 lime-worms up among the crops & cliffs above camp One was big beetle. Something has excavated around roots of long-leafed smelly Serena. One looked at had a big orange-red grub in the center of the stem; another had numerous cocoons. First cloud offered about 11 a.m.; at 12:45 it was grey-overcast to the east. Moon or sun clear later. First about 11:15 and 8 large Sheremian into cliffs at and above the hummingbird cave. At 2 p.m. cloudy bright, shade temp. was 8°, in hummer cave 8°. Flurries of snow. Saw L. altricolor at 1:30 at E7 on grid. Woodrat sets (2), dead-mouse bait had not been touched in 3 nights. Oct. 5 Full moon, some light overcast, min. 21°. Carol saw small dark lizard run into bush at Q12. Humeral droppings at hummer cave, which is only about grid. The two falcons are Falco femoralis. My trap at base of cliff at & above hummer cave caught Ph. darwini including two tags from the grid. Ants caught a tagged one way down to road. Albocauda escaped.

note of Lepidophyllum perlongulae. Mostly nocturnal but some activity during the day. Mammals seen 250m away and droppings 100m. Viscacha in small number seen 100m above grid, and their droppings are everywhere on the grid; they probably come down into the open parts at night and feed on cactus seeds, Lepidophyllum etc. Up in the cliffs are more green plants such as Werneria etc. Down the road 1/2 mile at the seeps, Ph. bolivensis was abundant. It was foraging long-leaved smelly Serecio; probably needs water. Something was operating around the roots of L.L. smelly Serecio on the grid, probably to get at coccide and or big orange-pink grubs that tunnel in the main stem. These might be skunk-beaver or mice. Saw no Trache or evidence of Cernmorez. No evidence of Chinchillids, Chroecoup, or Carnouyz, all of which might be affected. Lizards: Liolaemus alticolor was common near Sebedo. on the study area; L. multiformis was seen at camp 130m from the area, but none surely seen on the area. No conflicts, no water on the area, but 3 off. of frozen toads at a seep a half mile down the road. C10, D12, C11, C7, A12. Vegetation: Varita of Lepidophyllum overwhelm, but the two kinds of smelly Serecio are common. Underneath them we probably missed some Nototriche which I encountered when digging up Serecios as we left. Card saw ants. 3 sets of common droppings contained viscacha, birds, 1 turtle, small snails, mice, large flat humerus (lizard?), and broad blunt

Left about 10 for Tarata, all day was cloudy or cloudy-bright, even down in Tarata, and it seemed on the mountains south of Tarata; may have sound at yareto camp. Oct 6 Tarata, some light clouds. Ph. darwini in cage overnight ate cactus seeds (cushion cactus) and fruit, and some twigs of Jafido- Phylums, In afternoon given more Jafidos + cactus and Jafido galls, ate cactus seeds avidly, then flesh of fruit. No yareto seeds Obsdon aridus overnight ate cactus seeds; no evidence of Jafido, Savio's, or yareto seeds, In afternoon at broad feed, then cactus seeds. 2 pellets under a cliff near the yareto study area contained: (1) pure hummingbird feathers + feet (2) pure lizard scales. Also another mandible of a redvent and skull fragment and mandible of a small hystricomorph such as abrocoma, Oct 7 Tarata Oct 8 " . The cactus Obsdon aridus and Ph. darwini chilensis don't like Jafidophylum quadrupedae, but love seeds of cushion cactus, and darwini likes the fleshy part of the fruit also 5at. oct 9 Left Tarata 8:45 for Toca Tilbados desert; arrived 11:45. The trocavia green crumble-leaf burkels at Trok Cauts turnoff had been eaten to the ground. Put out corner stakes of a 150x150 grid and set 41 small 8harnesses and 30 large harnesses around periphery at 15-m spacing and 3 rows. No footprints of mine but lots of small feet and a few big dog.

Pearson 1971 Sun Oct. 10 5 a.m. foggy, but sun up by 6 and fog disappearing, including a curious almost-colorless rainbow. Hairs soaked while running trails and Tillandsia wet on north side but not south. Very light freeze from north (Tarata), minimum temp. 36°. Our desert clear by 6:30, but still overcast + foggy a mile toward Tarata, and Tarata still completely overcast at 8:30 a.m. Curious acoustic effects; can hear (and a native could understand) a loudspeaker in Tarata. Camp is a little further north of the 10 km marker on the Tarata-Tarata road (about 10½ km). No Tillandsia is budding or flowering, nor seedlings, but it looks healthy. The dense and crescents extend east-west going toward the south; there are more of the little pink-red succulent on the area proper, nor the rusty-brillo babas, but some grow 100 yds north of the area. There is one 2-foot-high hard "cactus" within the area; it has choked and killed numerous Tillandsia's; others can't try to keep from being smothered. Trails noted, except a few dry undercuts of them (unspurring), 2 dead trails laden with mouse carcasses noted. Brief flash- quartz crystals sparkle lighting revealed no geodes or potter; too much glitter in soil to count spider-eyes. Saw small bird and lizard-gallo trips in the gully next of camp. at 10 a.m. put about 25 museum specimens in this gully. at 5 p.m. a Trepadorum? was in one of the trails. Changed the two soft trails. In a typical part of the grid, I marked off a 15 x 15 m section and measured and turned over all the Tillandsia's. There were 5-7 mats or rows and recorded in total under them 16 tiny spiders, 3 medium-small spiders, 1 long-legged micro-

spiders, 1 Pseudoscopion, and 2 small Thyasaurans. Several collections of rather spherical empty beetle shells. A few small shells strewn about the general area. No geckos or lizards. I think the restriction is where the rocks are and there are more on the study area. Carol found a Gecko-like lizard out in the open about 50 m west of the grid. Yesterday's gecko was also about 50 m west; The area of Tillandsia spanned into 225 m² was 372,090 cm² = 16% coverage. The largest row was 700 x 50 cm. Root temp 72°, wet-dry 68°-59°. 1 P.M. open flat grid in sun, soil 3" deep 28°, 5" 26". Under large Tillandsia 3" 21°. The road dust is moving north leaving a trail of dead and drying Tillandsias. Oct. 11 Done fog gettled during night but AM was clear. A little dew cliftes off of car. A foth bed offered me set cautiously and stolen the hard from the roof; a foth scentod about 3 of the big shiny aluminum thermoses! Also 20 yds from tent, Early morning was overcast in Tacna. No trofs on grid touched. One in the rocky gulley had a mouse tail - Mus I believe. a gecko caught by Carol weighed 2 g. at 6:30 a.m. shade ground temp. 4" deep 18°, 5" deep 19°, 3" deep 15°, 2"-13° Under Tillandsia 5" deep 16°, 3" deep 16°. Under good gecko-like rocks (this): 13°, 12° in sun a flat rock in sun at 7:45 with gecko 14°. This location shall be known as 4 miles north Tacna, 3360 ft. The sterility of the study area proper with all its Tillandsias due to contrasted compared to rocks and gulley nearby is presence of rocks. The

No mice caught in clumps of Peño Queñuva, but a Bolomips was seen twice at the edge of a green clump next to the tent about 8 a.m. x Alrocoara trobe at a hole down near the turn of the road- also visceoba/printe, foot prints, and probably skunks. Carl saw a visceoba, about 150 yds from the grid, but I have not seen any droppings on the grid. The only dogard seen has been my old friend x Jodeum's multiformis under the sand store out off the Panfay. Did plant inventory with Carl in afternoon; 4 rows = 22 stations.. Hoof hasn't hit any coctus yet.

Then drove to Copago and Ancuora. Stevewyr/personne digging just north of Capago, but saw word board move (1:30pm). Had lunch at our former campsite 2 mi N Collofolco, 14,000 ft. The 3 tolas are common there: Barbaria, Gebeidhlylum rigidum, and L. quadruplex. Drove to Ancuora 3 p.m., a few huts, a chapel, and a school. Photo of school + teacher Mauro Sanigo Vilca, Correo Central, Juli, Calle Imprenta 122. Saw house cat in Ancuora (14,000 ft). Camped in tola - Festuca - Pterophyllum 1 mi S W Ancuora and set traps through tola, card along an abandoned stone corrals. Vegetation almost entirely Gebeidhlylum rigidum and these other two. Lots of open two burrows. Put out 35 large Sherman's, auto put out MS, and Seth large Sherman's, auto caught an Eliguedouts before 8 pm at an open two burrow. Oct-20 Fantastic frequency of lightning at 3 or 4 a.m. centered around a thunderbed very low on the northwest horizon. Night clear, calm, min - 2° F. My traps held 1 Bolowyr, 2 Eliguedouts, and 1 Ph. sublimus? Gebeidhlylum? In trap 3 one of the Eligimos appear to be birked. Auto caught 2 Goldcups, Eligivos, and 1 Bolowyr (dawn 6:30 am). Saw Bolowyr at 7am. There are a few heads of pilber cactus, much higher and more spherical than those so far seen. Also, around a rock hillock in the tola, were some differinde.

Night clear calm, minus 6°. Rangered at 5:15 a.m.; 2 Eligmodontus q.q. Again at 8: nothing but saw Bolomys multiformis at F 3/4 south of burrow, and L. alticola at J6 running into the bush. Psecheats flew over grid + canoes along river. Counted sets of two - two mounds on grid; 59, but hard to tell which are occupied. The squirrel is not worst, so even fresh digging looks oldish + dry. saw no trees and heard none. auto caught 1 Colomys durilla, Eligmodontus + sublimis. Seth caught 1 Ph. solivensis; 1 Bolomys perlefschii; and Eligmodontus. auto says Ph. sublimis droppings are small spheres, she saw Ph. solivensis eating Zephrids rigidum. Carol notes that the south side of upate is always the dead side. In afternoon (windy) plotted clusters of two diggings and rated them 1 (very fresh, surely today), 2 (fresh, surely lost 2 or 3 days), and older (more than 2 or 3 days). Ignored really old, presumably abandoned ones, at least 28 sets. Oct 22 Night clear, calm. Minus 8°. Grid traps at 5:30 had 6 Eligmodontus, 1 Bolomys, and 1 juvenile Abraxoma (frozen). Auto caught a large Phyllotis darwin in the bush minus 100 yards W of grid. Fawns now includes Ph. darwinii, Ph. solivensis, Colomys durilla, Ph. sublimis; Bolomys perlefschii, Ctenomys sp., and Abraxoma cinerea. The solivensis near the river. Excavated the burrow in part of which the juvenile abraxoma two was caught. A typical 2-ft gray nest a few feet down, but there are 10 yards of tiny red two tunnels.

the two burrow presumably occupied by the baby abrocoma. Also also get a Galeomys along a wall at the abandoned hut 140 yds west of the grid. It had greenish, yellowish pellets in its stomach. Hidehole stations with mice but not covered in our regular grid vegetation analysis: A2-1, A5-7, A6-1, A8-4, A9-1, B4-3, B6-1, B10-2, C5-1, C10-2, D5-2, E6-3, E7-2*, E10-2 F1-1, F2-2, F8-1, G2-1, G3-4, H10-2, I1-2, I5-4. Did plant census 9:30 to 11:30, two analyses, and hidehole count, then home, arriving Tarata about 5 p.m. Oct. 25 Captures Elegmodonts are completely gentle, easily handled, at pleasure of Lepidophyllum rigidum. Card estrous lived harmoniously in same trap and cage. Bipedal stance looks like Dipsos or Peropethus, sometimes a bipedal jump, but mostly more like Galeomys. Galeomys was completely docile, almost plastic in cage. Never endangering x Oct. 26 Drove with Carl + Beaumont to Yarata camp. This overcast at Tarata and at Yarata camp. Field character for distinguishing Galeomys from Rh. suthi: Galeomys has wide furry foot, white upper cheeks, fatter tail not long. Scats from 1 mi. SW Anconico: (not counting snake skins found by Sandy): Scats from 1/2 mi. W Chokofola: 6 scats in one collection contained four and two bones, no man or bird bones. 11 scats from Anconica -> Galeomys drills, 3 larger mice of at least 2 spp; and at least one bird and a scorpion/pincer.

Oct.27 Tarata Oct.28 Drove to Hda. Pairumaini (Ountare) and camped roughly about 100 yds south of our 1946 campsite. Drive took most of day, a good between Challepales + stretch of mixed Festuca - plus north of, Mesguarung, and lots of good alfalfa pastureage. Saw no deer or turamure or vicuñas. Weather somewhat overcast. Benson caught 12-14 web trant. minimum) 24° Oct.29 Put out icln grid 8x12 rows with 15-m spacing. Fairly heavily grazed and, in scale of some rock outcrops, it contains some fairly bare patches, probably "typical" of the area. Later p.m., the owner dropped in; Sra - Gonzalen arriet, sister of the owner of Hda. Pairumaini. She says we are on Hda. Ountare and that it has not been nationalized. Various people fired without great success. small shernus Put q traps around adobe brick piles near camp. Slight overcast all day. Oct.30 Minimum 20°, mostly clear but not entirely. 9 live traps caught 1 osibol and 1 Colomys dullele, and 2 osibos, 1 berdepechhi, 1 duelle, mostly near grid. Anita's live traps in gulley caught 3 osibol; Benson's snags traps caught 1 Ph. sublimis, 2 akabon bolin, and 4 osilos, Later in the morning this line caught 2 Blomyc amvencuse and 2 ammoune got caught on the grid between 6 and 9 a.m. Moon 3/4 or 4/5 full. Day about half cloudy - bright. Oct.31 Cleared up overnight; minimum 4° F. Benson with 30 snags traps at base of a cliff north of camp caught 4 osibol. Anita with 17 large shernus at the base of the cliff shown in the altiplano paper caught 1 Colomys berdepechii and 1 Ph. osibol. Benson + Anita drove yesterday to the Pampas de Qwelleto in search of Ctenomys peruanus. They found old old burrows but nothing fresh and heard none.

Anteaters are fairly common here. Have peckers? The [illegible] banks of the gulley next to camp is riddled with burrows and is a center of bird activity! Nov. 1 Clear, calm overnight, minm 9°, noon very hot, wet-dry bulb at 1:30 71°-42°; 2:30 still 71°, clear, breeze but felt stifling. Benson caught a Weston's jay in thick thicket along creek at 5:30 pm. (in swift trap but it survived overnight for cytoto). He also carped 2 Goldfinch petrus in heavy thicket near creeks, also 2 ozidiae, Anula in 19 large Sherman's at base of the cliff toward birds caught 3 berdeichini and 2 ozidas. Looked for frogs after supper, but only tadpoles in a shallow pond along the road. Full moon, Nov. 2 Night clear. Pulled up traps at 6 am. maybe a Ph. darwini out the grid; see specimen. Then Carol and I finished plant survey on grid. Not most all species of plants except for the bird-nest cactus, an Orestrochilus visited 4 or more of our red yarn markers while we were surveying. This area, like all our study grounded; this one dry cause. Horses nearby. on the area and on various 27° slope There are times of ancient agriculture hills nearby, plus recent plowing on others. No. of hideholes at mouse sites other than regular stations: A3-0, B1-0, B3-3, C8-9, D2-9, D5-9, E4-0, F1-0, F2-9, F4-0, F7-9, G3-1, H4-0, I4-0, J2-9, S4-9, K1-0, L7-1. I'm gathering this data it appears that the mouse sites were near outcrops, not invariably over with hideholes. In other cases there were hideholes beyond the range of the 2.2 meter plots.

For birds note that there was nothing higher than 3 1/2 feet of 3 feet on the ichn area (not on the tolo or T. laburiae areas). Summary of plants on ichn area: no. of birdholes per plant station 0.34; birdholes per mouse station 0.61; birdholes per no-mouse station 0.09. Profile: 1st half meter 81.0% of board excluded; 2nd half meter 4.1%; 2nd meter 0.03%, Hoof sampler % coverage 50.0%; % coverage at mouse stations 54.6%; % coverage at no-mouse stations 48.0% Nov. 3 Tarata, I put 17 museum species and 1 large shrew in the big rocks south of town and along a stone wall with scattered bushes at the edge of a clover alfalfa field it drank. Benson put 20 MS along a wall at the edge of a young corn field. Nov. 4 Night clear, light frost on clover leaves. Combined catch was 13 Ph. magister and 3 Akodon boliviensis. Below the level of the big rocks, every mouse on the entire hillside surely lives in a terrace wall. Linnell of Benson's mice came from about 100 yds of wall and surely don't include all of them, let's say 1/2 phyllostis per 100 yds of walls = hundreds or thousands on that terraced hillside. at 3 PM drove up to the acequias camp with Benson and I put out 40 small shrews, mostly along road walks, some in thick brush in a gulley across the road. He put out +/- 50 long shrews and maybe 30 museum species. Clear. Nov. 5 Night clear + calm, breeze at about 4:30 a.m. No deer puddles. My traps had 7 phyllostis (mostly darwin but at least 1 magister) and 2 Bolomys berkeshii - all phyllostis put up except 1 darwin escape.

One of Benson's traplines ran along the acequia from about A7 going grid to the other complete upstream. On this part of the line he caught 4 Phyllos - all tagged (4284 P.O. near A4), 447 registers 20m east of A3, 437 & 60m +/- east of A1, and near A5. He also had traps on the slope north of the reservoir and caught no. 433; this must be at least 200 yards from the nearest part of the grid. Reservoir was empty at 6 pm with no water going in. at 6 a.m. it was full, with no water going in. They must fill it at night to provide maximum irrigation water during the day. but water flowing out to join the acequia Dissected about 1/2 pint of coarse droppings from the gully near Tillaidsia study area. Contained mostly invertebrates (spiders, scorpions), bird (only a few feathers), garbage (tin foil, cellophane, watermelon seeds), 1 mouse molar, teeth and fur of a diastemomorph such as vigeola ! Also belly section of a large lizard or of a snake. No other mouse bones, no gecko bones seen. Use: 6 Left 8:45 for Tacna and coast. Dry dry dry until after Santa "north of" Colorados; then some flowers begin to offer. Sozo enters at Quebrado El Burro, then a section of green on a 1500 foot rocky cliff near a sea lion colony at Calate Morro Sana, which is 65 km west of Tacna. Went as far up the coast as a sheep hut at a cave occupied by a guano caretaker who had an ancient gun and about 15 pairs of cordovan feet. A dark lively small lizard lived right at the edge of the surf. Made camp about 200 ft above the rocky

each under the cliffs. Put out 3 rows of traps (35 small stewarts) at 15 m intervals, 25 m. apart across what will be the study grid. 7 or more cords went to root high up on more sand. Hundreds of goats grazing up in the greenest part of high, plus a few cows. Weather sunny with a sea haze; felt muggy to us accustomed to Tarata & higher. Nov. 7 Morning cloudy until 9 or 10 o'clock. Condors left their roost before sun after much flapping, renules, and [illegible] trial flapping of wings. 5 phytohs on traps on grid and season caught 3 adult and 4 juv dermum in small traps below road. Staked out a 10 x 11 15-meter grid in stoney ground between the road and cliffs. Lots of flowers of many many kinds; only a few places with sparse scattering of growth. Sets of a yellow flower, food drooped downy bush, lots of flowers and a white- flowered shrub-drooped flowers with long long stems, beautiful rich colored zosterums in the stoney river; two of which

river a little above the grid, and Benson saw what may have been other tracks along the ocean while setting traps along the beach when various pellets and seals we have found several weasels, a house mouse, on albatross?, and many Phyllotice. The grid is loaded with lizards. Put traps out 4 to 6:30; small lizards were still out until about 6 p.m. Nov. 8 Nighted a.m. oversaw 8 phyllotice dominic in my traps. Benson got some dominica blue muss near the beach. He saw otter in the surf, plus droppings that contained mineral shells (small) and fish bones. Anita saw an otter curled up asleep on the beach, which Benson later collected. Left for Tacna 9:30 a.m. and spent all day getting car Rodeo, money, etc. Returned 6:30. Distance from Boca del Rio is 15.1 miles, almost all straight south for the zig at Quatroh de Buero, so maybe 14 miles up the coast from Boca del Rio which our road map is Dos Baños. The coastal cliff is surely Morro Sama. Nov. 9 The night and all morning oversaw or cloudy bright, only 3 mice in my traps and 1 Phyllotice Selbie in every rock. Spent morning roosting and marking lizards on study area. One big lizard seen out at 5:30 a.m., but saw no other until much later, 3 or more cordons flying at 5:35, but people were near cliff. Marked 17 lizards between 8 and 4:65. a passerby who owns goats & cows says it actually rains in may - june - july. Found about 100 terminal parts of scorpion tails on one rock.

1730 ft higher than camp. Set traps at the base of the cliff on the way up; about 25 musk specials, almost all in muskroot at the base of the cliff. Huge rivers of muskroot (in flower) covering angular stones blocks - talus, a few specimens of "fig" tree, a few bushes. Near the top is another species of yellow dairy bush with crinkly rough leaves. Arrived at the top at 3 pm and within a few minutes about 8 condors soared over, some as close as 30 ft. - young, middle-aged, and adult - judging by white wing color. Weather overcast. They stayed aloft 1/2 hour, looking me over. Just as 3 or 4 of them had descented and the others were about to land, 100 goats were driven over the cliff only 50 yards from them, so they left. So did I. At least 8 or more were resting at the usual spot on the cliff. A few stars at sunset. yesterday when the geatherds were milling around the cliffs there were 20 condors in the air at one time. A large, long-tailed, black chimel, strafed these condors. lizard shot by Benson weighed 37 g. Nov. 10 bright overcast, and all morning. Traps in the musk-root at the base of the cliffs caught 1 musk and 4 ph. dermini. Grid caught 10 dermini. Marked more lizards on grid in a.m. although not quite warm enough or bright enough for large numbers, up to 8:10 a.m. had marked 21 individuals. Then went out again from 10:20 to 12:00 and cruised between each row. saw 20 lizards of which 5 were worked over = 2 x 20/5 = 84 individuals. Marked 6 of these so that as of noon today there are 27 marked individuals on the grid.

no sun in afternoon either. some fog around moors/pole at 4& 5:30 p.m but disappeared. Nov. 11 night cloudy, and only A.M., but cleared and sunny all afternoon. Went to Tacos at 8:30 and returned at 1PM, A foot in Benson's trop edge of camps. 8 mice on my grid. Carol + Benson tagged one more lizard in a m (= total of 28 color-marked lizards onto grid). At 2 pm, Carol, Ali, I Sandy, and Anita did 2 sweeps across the grid, on each row, recording lizards. Sunny and warm. Between 2:15 and 3:40 we recorded 62 lizards of which 12 were marked over. Lincoln index = 28 x 62/12 = 145 Carol did counts in the morning and counted 41 lizards of which 14 were marked over: 27 x 41/14 = 79 lizards. at 4 p.m., went down to the ocean with the girls and saw one or more otters plus black lava lizards and red crabs like Golopopsids. I came home early with Benson's pot, which we found hiding under a rock with trop on its foot. After I left the girls watched an otter drying its fur in the sand only 12 feet from them. Nov. 12 night cloudy and moving overcast until about 11 when it became sunny enough for lizards. So after finishing the plant survey the 4 girls + I did another lizard sweeps covering rows A to E on the way north and g-k on the way back, counting as before, row F to avoid counting same lizard twice. Counted 72 lizards of which 18 were marked over.

Nov. 15 Tarata. Benson put 10 large stermans and 14 small folding sternums out at the Agrofecurria chacra late yesterday afternoon. This morning he had 2 cakedon bolinensis and 12 Pth. magister. nine out of 10 large stermans contained mice; the tenth was fled out in an acequia. Day mostly sunny. Nov. 16 Morning clear, no clouds. Ali's jeans soaking in water in patio had ice on them, but none on water trough. a collection of several dozen scats + pellets of fox + burrowing owl collected at Mono Sama contained, roughly in sequence of importance, Phyllotis, scorpion, Marivosa, large bird, large crustacean, mice, cakedon?, beetles + other arthropods, small bird, lizard. One rat- sized femur. Nov. 17 Tarata. Some cream? Nov. 18 Mostly clear. Drew up to acequias canals at 8 am and counted plants and hideholder. Sunny; still completely dry, no sign of rain. Saw 4 striped lizards during 3 or 4 hours on the area. The analysis of plant species revealed an enormous number of species, especially 1 small capsule-leaving plants. A bright, knowledgeable shepherd who came past looking for a lost sheep said that he was 55 yrs old and that the abandoned terraces near and above the grid had never been used in his lif- time and that there were no abandoned acequias to water them. Here, he concluded, it used to rain more. He referred with a sweep of his arm to all the uncultivated land and refused to admit that the lack of grass (which he lamented) was due to overgrazing or back at 4 pm. Saw no hummingbirds. The big trumpet bushes are almost through flowering; many of the seed pods on them contain grubs.

nov. 19 Tarata nov. 20 Proceed to Rock Camp and counted plants. No change in the vegetation although there were some rain drops splattering on the ground. llamas were grazing in the dry wash (10,000 ft !). Saw 2 lizards or grid area, no other a large scale form dodo, blotchy one. The barberry-leafed thorn bush has a tubular blush flower about an inch long. Tobacco tomatoes still flowering; board Patagonia, 33 species of plants in our best samples. nov. 21 About 20 carnivores droppings from Rock Camp contained mostly fur, including Phylotis and Vizcacha !, also some vertebrates including scorpion, and some seeds. nov. 21 Drove to Yareta camp with Carol, arrived just before sunrise over the cliff. Clear & cold in morning, then clouded up about noon. Walked up to the hummingbird cave about 3 p.m.; waited out front for 10 minutes, then went inside. The two nests still there but no signs of hummers. Took photos of Yareta, no signs of spring. nov. 22 Saura Zavala, owner of the "our" house, who is about 50 yrs old, says that the terraced high up on the mountain have not been used in her time or in her grandparents' time. A frost has killed a lot of the corn between here and Acopina camp, as well as in local spots around town here. Most of it 1 to 2 ft. tall. Some potatoes also frost bitten. nov. 23-26 Tarata. On 26th in alfalfa terrace at edge of town at 5 pm saw flock of about 50 Zorotrochis spenalis. There was a little more singing than when we first came, but not like in Tacna. nov. 27 Tarata. Every day has been sunny in morning and clouding up in afternoon, usually with a clear patch under the clouds in the west so that the sun comes through (under) the clouds from about 5 to sunset (5:45),

Drove Carol, Ali, and Sandy to the end of the road on the way to Chucatainai. Road ends about 1/2 hour walk above Chotala, which is a tiny village in a ribbon of green irrigation at the bottom of steep bare mountains. Chucatainai is famous for fruits "of all kinds". Some of their pears, which we saw, are more than an inch in diameter. Dec. 1 Drove with Carol & Peter to Yurata camp; arrived about 8:15. Sunny at first but soon scattered clouds. A caracara found our garbage in less than an hour. Grid [illegible] and vegetation looked the same; moisture in soil not far down. Saw one very small Rioseus altirostris maybe 50 yards below the grid; must have been recent hatchling. Measured some of the biggest yaratas, one covered an area of 32.4 m^2. The frost bitten corn above town is still alive but looks awful. Dec. 3 Left Tarata 9 a.m., saw 2 Tucantus at the forest place W of the Yurata camp (about 11 km NE Tarata) and another one with 5 young or 2 males old in the tola about 2 or 3 miles south of Challejalea. Miserable stony road from Ancuamaro toward Pijacoma. At one point 5 km of beautiful new road, then impassable, so 5 km back to alternate rocky guide. Stopped for about an hour at a two shot with fairly large red earth mounds and set 8 snares hoping to get Coturnix decodon. Got 4 spring antipes; then Carol found a mound that was not decodon so we drove on. Two other places had Peruvian-like hordes and guinea pigs, but we heard no building calls. Most of this from Ancuamaro north is beautiful Festuca and/or tola (Bromus rigidus) with occasional Adesma scapes. Very few people. Saw only 2 vehicles all day (Tarata to Pijacoma). Should have been

full of vicuna and rheas. Saw more. Camped at dusk in ichu along a stream at 13,200ft in a red-rock gorge with lots of caves. A mothofprola ran off as we pulled in. Day sunny and very warm. Clouds to north and east Dec.4 No hummingbirds or rests in about 6 nice caves on north-east side of valley. No Chupinquea but numerous drople orange-red trumpet flowers poking up out of the ground on the steep slope. Clouded up during the night, all overcast at 5 a.m. Carol looked in caves on S W side of valley and found a baby bat lying on the floor above; no hummers in the caves but she saw one. Locality shall be known as 4 miles 13km SSW Popayana, 13,200ft. Huacullani and to Dec.5 Drove through Pinpama to Pichupichini looking for tucos-tucos. a gorgeous elevated straight road back toward Pichupichini and a landing strip has been abandoned almost impassable. No tucos, neither lemurdon nor pervanus. Drove to the border of Desagradors and waited about 2 hrs. for the advance to finish level; a muddy garlogo-stream dump. Bolivia offered a striking contrast immediately. neat towns, painted pastel building, lots of metal roofs, and fields planted and green. Obviously earlier rain here. Gasoline + most in abundance in Suazi. ate supper then, then camped in a field some rain while driving, and road with puddle in many places Dec.6 A few sprinkles dawn. Breakfast in Ja Paz, then south by paved road through slight drizzle and down to Carchola where we turned east toward Sa Paz. Lots of bunchgram (spars) atyplana, barely good enough to cultivate, but they try. Not many clowns + albinae. Then over the rutua toward Cochabamba. Much more high country than Chod

remembered. Done yareta (with smaller rosettes) sparse bunchgrass, cultivation up to (4,000 ft.), not much grazing. Was cloudy, drizzly, or foggy most of the time. Drove late after dark in search of an acceptable campsite. Ended up on a (hopefully) unused road with truck car right in middle of its road. Dec. 7 Clouds disappeared during the night; morning clear. At least 30 people walked through, came at various times during the night. We are on edge of steep canyon with brush, bunchgrass, puffer tree, and coffee farms in the distance with newly plowed fields, new corn, etc. Our elevation is (illegible) 10,600 ft.; we are at a place called Chulucakasa, km 62, 14.6 miles by road from Parotasi (which is 8430 ft.). Took photos of farm and steep fields. Saw dead slantle and quince pig (?) droppings. In the 25 large folding Sherman's set after dark last night I caught 1 Phyllostus wolffsohnii. Left about 8 (a truck wanted to get in to road to collect yeso rocks) and drove down to Parotasi, then along the river toward Cochabamba. Camped 10:30 am in molle, acacia, mimoso /brush, cactus; 4.9 miles by road from Parotasi, 8500 ft. Call (illegible) miles direct south = also Palo Boracho, Payecamba. Put out 5-5 live traps at 3:30; ants & centipeds cut about 50 also. Hot. Dec. 8 Rain during night, stopping about 6 am. Maybe 1/2". The dry wash by camp with lots of muddy water. My traps held 2 Phyllostus, ants & cent each caught a Grasshopper. Broke camp about 10:30 and drove to Cochabamba. Things looking quite green. Left Cochabamba about 6 pm and drove about 15 km along the Santa Cruz road. Camped in acacia Prosopis thorn scrub. Mudboots of frogs calling in the valley = full of puddles from rain yesterday, as we set

eating papaya at bat-flying time, an army officer, loaded by rifle barrel peaking over a rise 20yds away, strode into camp and wanted to see our documents! cloudy at 6 pm, clear by 9, clouded again in the middle of the night, then clear at its morning. Dec. 9 all day on the Sucre road. Goes into almost-all-flower country between Cobas and Epigonus. Epigonus to Sucre is mostly their samb; a curious "savannah" of bare red earth and stones with widely scattered trees of many kinds including mulato, acerola, etc. Enough rain so that everyone is plowing and planting corn (behind thorn-branch fences). Some corn three high and in a few places, especially along the Rio deando or one of its tributaries, ready to shake. The town of Totoro is burning, all tile roofs. In the absence of adequate any sort map of Bolivia, we bought a big wall-map in Cochabamba. It turned out to be ludicrously absurdly inaccurate. It rained a few sprinkles during the day. Confied along the river at about 1km45 from Sucre in bare-ground thorn forest. Overcast, We didn't actually see many geats during the day, but lots of browse lines and absence of ground cover in spots of enough rain to rice corn. Put out about 25 small skimmers at 6 pm in a dry wash with thorns, larger trees, right shining cardelobra cacti, and spring ground lavender-botz. Dec. 10 Nothing into after. B numerous flying around camp at night. Drove to Sucre then towards Potosi but turned south before Potosi to Chuna. South of Chuna is a particularly good sample of the country

being cultivated for corn and also: the ground stoney and bare bare bare. How come enough rain for corn, but nothing else grows? canvles in an almost bare area with folds, caeti and a few acacia trees near Otavi. Dec. 11 Rain during night. Drove along valley thru Camargo etc. Flat English parsons tire in playa of Abecia. Stopped for the night in a broad dry wash & with many nice big acacias and some bushes in the flats and many kinds of cactues, polo verde, and various thorns on some hillsides. Other hillsides bare. Put 24 small Sherman among bushes up a dry wash, and 12 more plus 5 large Sherman on cactus hillside. Night partly foggy. Anita & Carol put about 50 day sh. Dec. 12 Foggy at 5:30 a.m. but clear by 6:00. 2 phyllocas along side bushes in the dry wash, but nothing among cactus. Both Anita & Carol had found ? Octodon trops? droppings among cactues, and good holes, but caught nothing. Our camp is between La Carvera (a bridge) and what appears to be a long upgrade toward Saccachyapi (Village Tarija), 10,000 ft & Drove thru Sacacachyapi though rich cactus then bunchgrass, then toward Villagon - Ju Quisosa through spectacular steep stoney canyons. Arrived Villagon about 3 p.m., got through cactuses at 6. Collected 4 lizards on stone/ plains near 2 lakes with flamige [illegible] of Villagon. Camped on open plains about 10 miles south of Sa Quisosa. Dec. 13 Light rain during night. Drove to Teloso and camped among willows, molle, bushes, & fields 1/2 mile north of the town. Set about 50 small and large Sherman along walls in the town on three separate pieces of trap line. Some molle trees, some willows, some Lombardy poplars. Anita & Carol put traps along walls in the dry wash (Sorgante del Diablo), and Peter put traps along the cemetery walls.

Dec. 14 Considerable rain during the night; lots of water coming out of the Gorganta, but almost stopped by morning. My traps had about 3 mus, 1 Patton, and 6 Phyloto caprinos (including a couple of Andinocyp). Other lines had about 4 caprinos and/or andinocyps. Packed up soggy mess and drove to Tucuman. Camped outside of town on road to Ag. Stations. Dec. 15 No rain. Did 8 skins + chromosomes; then drove south and camped near the summit between Salinas and Sa merced. Very hot, even at night. Having mice dead of heat. Put out about 25 bag skimmers in dry thorn scrub - quebracho forest, lots of ants. Large yellow + blue + dark fays Dec. 16 Nothing in traps. Hot all night. No rain. Drove to Catamarca and Chumbilba. Arrived Chumbilba about 1pm. Very hot & humid. No place to stay and no enthusiasm to stay, so packed up meal and returned to Catamarca. Dec. 17 Catamarca. Doctor for ali etc. Very hot. Dec. 18 " Our room in hotel was 35° at midnight, about 32° outside the window; Dec. 19 Moved to Hosteria at La Concepcion, 3200 ft., 37 km SSW Catamarca. Still hot. Dec. 20 Native vegetation is thorn scrub and huge Opuntia trees, also lots of planted English walnut, olives, corn, shade trees etc. about 40 traps in dry wash behind the Hosteria caught 2 mus (goibys). still hot Dec. 21 Traps along the river and a few in thorn scrub caught one juvenile Grasscyps, nine steel traps and 6 museum specials in white-washed runways under thorn goat fences and containing

side with spruce, roundbodies, cancor and bassies. Temp: very warm. Night clear. Dec.25 Nothing in anybody's traps. All has seen more tinamous. also 2? families of so half-dozen small owls. Lots of bats flying in evening, but we know of no water for owls. Still no evidence of people other than troffis on the roads. At 6pm autor I set about 150 live traps in scrub & palms about 12 kms SW Chumbalo, The palms seem to be the center of action, with droppings and numerous digging under them. Saw capeton tinamous. Temp: in chumbalo at 5:30 was 42o. Dec.26 Walking in traps, but one group in acute strips near camps. Drove to Audalpa for lunch with Marce and Beryl Vallen-Viselemieu, then camped at the Cuesta de Zapata between Belen and Tenogardo, 1875m. Carol + autor put out about 50 traps, Dec.27 Traps caught 4 mice (2 braompi + 2 rh). Vegetation: grass bushes and pink granite. Drove through Tirogasta + Francelo, thence toward Paso de San Francisco. Camped at 13,300ft about 122km NW Tirogasta, a pampa with stream, quetal llanos. Camped in unoccupied hut. Autor put out about 25 large Shermana. Dec.28 Night clear, barely freezing. 4 Phyllos dormice and 1 abeodon aridenius? in autor's traps. Left early and drove to Cofijo, arriving about 5pm.

no permanent solutions, saw about 4 herds of deer, and saw love guanaco twice. A carder took off from humerby ground near the road; no food there. There is some small-island country off-reaching the base from the east, but essentially nothing on the west side of the pass all the way down to Copafco. Laguna Verde is salt, thermal, Tobo fire, with flamingos, ducks and [illegible]; no vegetation around it. Camped on beach north of caldera. Dec 29 Drove through autopoqueta (4 hrs to get visas etc) and camped at midnight in nitrate jungle in Tarafuco north of Vicoria. Only vegetation from Copafco was a "forest" of planted acacrobos: in southern Tarafuco, but we passed them at night. Dec 30 Arrived Arica about 11a.m., Drive shaft bearing finally gave out in downtown Arica!! Fixed by 1p.m. and drove to Tacro to put Anita + Alison place. Camped at our Tillodios study area outside Tacro. Sky almost clear, breeze from Tacro. Dec 31 Sky almost clear at 6a.m., no dew, breeze from inland (north). Our footprints on the study area are still almost but not quite fresh. The ground here is sandy on the surface, with quartz crystals, but powdery underneath, obviously wind-scoured by gentle breezes: stamping your feet stirs up dust. The powdery soil goes down at least a foot; no blooms on the Tillodios. Drove to Tarata and then up to yapato camp. Brief but fierce

Vegetation looks same as our last visit except maybe windy the Notolribo look greener & larger. No hummers seen at cave. Drove down to Quinwa camp at 8:30 a.m. Ground damp, vegetation same, a lizard still under the rock. The tallest furevas are 12 ft., but only a few as much as 10 ft. Windy.

Pearsen 1971 Species account Abrocoma cinerea Feb 11 6 am NE Tarata, 12,900 ft. Large Abrocoma set at large opening in a rock retaining wall below road and baited with ripened rolled oats and cracked corn. Caught a large abrocoma between 6 and 8 pm. Doiled in trap. Feb 12 Put into screen cage. Very docile, ate blossoms and leaves of Haplophyllum Sabidophyllum quadrangulare as soon as offered, but ignored Barbarea, Sevens, and cactus. A Phyllotis noguerai was caught in a tree a few feet away, and at 8 p.m. a Bolomys bedecollii was in the same trap; released. Feb 13 Bolomys again in the trap at 6:30 a.m., penned. There was a half cup of abrocoma droppings on the floor of the hole in the wall (4 feet above ground). Droppings look like mouse, some with longitudinal lines. On our way back from the campfire we stopped at noon at our camp at 6 am NE Tarata and there in the farthest least rocky part of the pampa was a sprayed abrocoma cinerea. Between 6 and 10 vehicles had passed during the dark hours. Our captive continues to be completely "plastic," likes to be handled. Have tried him on a great assortment of foods but he has eaten only two stems + blossoms of Sabidophyllum quadrangulare and carrots, at night he makes a very soft, mellow, gentle pig-like sound. Feb 25 Took him up to 12,600 and released him under Sabido quadrangulare. He ate Sabido, a tiny succulent yellow-flowered forb, a few leaves of Phylepis, and bark + a few twigs of Ephedra. Feb 26 Ate lots of Phylepis overnight. But actually active only late at night (4 am?)

Pearsen 1971 opened account Lisbaum multiforum Oct 3 see journal Oct 4 yesterday evening compared temp/performance of a L, altador and 2 jun. multiforums of same size, in air in shade at 5:20 p.m., both equilibrated, both totally immobile; air 4° c. This morning, after burying them overnight to prevent freezing, pit them out on burlof in sun at 8:09; shade 7°, burlof layer 19°, breezy, at 8:13 all 3 ran off when touched. Put them back in plastic box in shade 5°; at 8:29 body temp 9° ran unsteadily and righted (both sibs-). At 8:33 in shade 6° can walk, body temp 6°. multiforum opens mouth, but not altador. At 8:37 into sun 8:38 still sitting in spots or preening; 8:39 ditter; 8:40 ditter; 8:41½ all lively, body temp 17°. Down the road under the rock where AK and Ali caught toads and lizard yesterday, at 9:50 a.m. a baby lizard ran under it, temp. under it was 6°. Looked under oodles of rocks thereabouts but nothing else. Big ones in damp places have frost under them, numerous lace spiders. at 10:15 a big S ran under big rock into shallow burrow; his temp 31°, burrow 4°, air 8° (shade). Sunny. Moon watched the 2-tailed S from the rock of yesterday. Grazed on steep forks, when cloud covered sun he ran onto flat rock. Oct 7 The large S from 13 km NE Tarso that Ali has tamed (in one day) and walking in the patio weighs 30g and snout-vent 98mm, Eats flies, so far we have not seen it grazing. Also eats ants, Oct 15 Photo'd the one under the small rock in the pumpa at 12,900'. Like Ali's captive, he her becomes quite tame and permitted Pearson to photo at 2 feet distance. He was out with shade at 4° c.

Perhaps the seeds flow into these crocks, and there are the places where seedlings get started. I fess, Sandy hills with Tillendica on the sides should have rocks above somewhere. Drove south and camped after dark about 10 m.s. Tea. no vegetation. Two totes on edge of camp during night.

Camped at Inchi 5 mi. ENE Canana, Rest - Areguiza, about 2,000 ft. Good lona vegetation, an 8" timothy-like grass in bunches plus woody canals?, ocalis, a very few low coati. Heard foran owl and bats during night. March 9 Saw a mouse run into a hole at dawn. Dig him out with first or second shovelful; a very light redish soil, a Phyllotis darvini, breeding male. Numerous other furrows nearby, some of them quite large as though made by something else (Geotita?), and earth runways emanating from them, cuttings, mouse droppings, and footprints in front of them. Dig out two more darvini easily. Some others too deep and took log; saw snakes, lots of furmaride. Drove south, lunching in Moquegua. All rivers with lots of muddy water. Miles of green lona between Moquegua and Tacna, also miles of dried up lona vegetation. Arrived Tacna 4 pm. March 10 + 11? new sedate. In Tacna, anti-freeze at the Ford agency. The big lot of equipment went into the living-bedroom of the manager of a parking lot on Calle Deustoa about 2 blocks north of the main drag. The trucks will be parked in that lot also when we return. Left about 9:30 for the coast. Our old lona study site is much drier than when we were here before in October?, 1976. The Grindela bushes

The bushes up near the top of the ridge appear to be green and the rows of cucumber vines are green up near the top of the ridge but not down low. Hunted regards for Sarah both around camp and down at the ocean. Both species abundant. The Trifidum [illegible] around camp were wild about watermelon, and ate the pulp, apple seeds and dry. Many turkey vultures, a few condors up on the cliff, several (5 or more) burring ours cavorting around camp. 13 condors on cliff at dusk. saw 1 never, 1 other small bird. On the sandy desert there are numerous still-green clumps of grass, but all the annual beds are dried up. Never more than 5 miles from tracks - jaguar or cougar or both. Anita scared up some mice around a huge hole in the sandy part, and we caught 4 of them (P. darwinii). On our cobbled grid area the only green is Sericidion, with a few of them flowering. All the herbs and grass dry. Just before dark I put out 26 small shrews baited with whole corn on the old study grid among the cobbles. Dave Bradford put out a line of 12 traps mostly below the road. Anita put out 20 large shrews, [by shrews?] night clear, lots of stars. [illegible] Moon half full, set about midnight. Shortly after midnight Anita became aware of mice running around our

sleeping bags, and Dave was already fighting a pitched battle with them. We all got up and swooped around with flashlights. The watermelon rinds, cantaloupe rinds, and stale bread thrown out in front of the tent were swarming with phyllostia. A dozen could be seen in an area of 400 ft^2 with one sweep of the flashlight. Many of them were fearless and would continue eating only 6 ft. from an observer. They showed food and did not squeakable. No squeaking. Walking up and down the road and around revealed fewer mice than near camp, but still lots. Went back to bed about 1:30, but mice still scampered occasionally over my sleeping bag. While flashlighting saw 3 abodons; shot 2 of them. Also thought I saw 2 marmots, but they were much scarier than the phyllostia and the abodon. Dave tried to defend himself by setting 13 traps everywhere around his bed. When a mouse got caught in one, he would throw it down over the foot of his sleeping bag and set another one. In the morning, there were 7 full traps around his bed and 7 at the foot of his bed??. My 26 traps held 11 phyllostia and 2 marmots, Anita's 20 traps held 11 mice, and Dave's 12 traps held 12 mice. Scared all of them. 4 of them are embalmied for being tissues. One of these 4 looked like a magister with vestigial brown ad dark tail and coarse fur. Not counting Dave's bed line, 58 traps, 34 phyllostia, 2 marmots, 1 abodon.

Dave climbed up to the condor cliff, leaving camp before daybreak. Saw and heard lots of mice on his way up to the cliffs. at about 6:30 am I did a slow walk down our grid and look looking for birds, then a detour to the coral above camp. The bird scene is dominated by the groups of rufous burrowing owls. Saw 2 or 3 mice and about 4 thrush-like cloudnoses, nothing else. Both Dave & I in the middle of the night heard a burrowing owl coming creeked and while trying to see him saw a faint flash of light (?) apparently eventrating from the owl. We all agree that the mouse invasion didn't start until after the moon went down (about midnight). Drove to Tacna for shopping, then to Tarata. A little water in the river at Rock Camps (10,000 ft), and a little green on the hillsides. Arrived at acacia camps (11,500 ft) (mountain scrub) at dusk, cloudy, but cleared during the night. march 12 Mountain Scrub. Lots of dew, no frost. Clear. The campsite is a green carpet, damp or soggy. Lots of green bushes and flowers. Cactus bushes not blooming, and greenthorn not blooming. Saw a "flock" of 6 Patagona chasing eachother, walked over part of grid and saw porocheeta on ground, Geositta curvebill, asterias, orange-barked shrubs. Zootrichia's not seen singing redhearts. Quite a bit of grass and laurelflowers on grid. Tallest cacti are 8 ft, no cactus flowers, numerous puffballs up to 1 inch diam. Lots of yellow-flowered daisy bushes, surely

One of the dark ones must have one to slip his tail while I was killing them. The mountain scrub area has lupines. Saw one altildeor and Dove saw one. Have seen only one or two doers, March 13 Night mostly cloudy, but clear at 5:30 a.m. minim 40°. yesterday's high was 70 but felt much better.

#49 wet bulb-dry bulb 58-44 at 11:30 a.m. Wolkipera study area saw about 5 alcedos, 1 multiformis near camp. Heard Orotrachelus & few grey tyrants x Soti of yaveta flowers. I remember correctly, Carol dug in the soil to the depth of the width of a pair of fingers. In the trees are two pairs of side cutting fliers whose jaws are 9 and 12 mm. Stopped at the road a half mile up the road but saw no birds or lizards, so drove over the divide to Challefolca and camped at our former one-night stand one mile east of the control station. Made a brief stop at the Quinzo camp to cut a section of Quinzo trunks. Saw a pair of leafcups tending 3 young on the Pampa in the same place where Carol & I saw leafcups before. The madan had a paint wash of green, but the study area itself looked little different than in fall of 1971. Dave saw a mouse that must have been Aulisomys schinensis. Arrived Challefolca after lunch. A breeze but no wind as in November 1971. Saw a few lizards. The habitat is gravelly /pebbly soil with lots of longer rocks scattered about. Festuca, Geofitophyllum rigidum and quadrangulare. Afternoon clouded up

March 16 night overcast at first (falling rain), then mostly clear. Frost, plus ice on water bucket outside. Calculation of tolerance with Schulteis; in no. of seeds for 40 chicks. #1 - 36.2° - 8.1sec., 27.3° - 12.9sec., 17.6° - 21.65sec., 8.6° - 35.3, 6.3°-42.1 cutout at about 5°. #2 35.7° - 14.0sec., 27.2° - 21.5sec., 17.4°-36.1 8.9-58.0 4.6-76.4 0°-102.4 #3 (Bernstein) 35.3° x 7.17, 26.9° x 14.4, 17.2° x 32.75 Ran some sun-shade tests of a toad with transmitter fed by mouth (easy). Then put him under a big toad-boulder with "runways" under it and monitored him all day. He never came out, and so finally at 7:30 me tried getting gone and retrieved him (and the radio). Also put a radio under a nearby boulder and monitored its temp. Anita watched a small toad come out and bask. Brief rain about middle of day, followed by west wind and scattered clouds. March 17 morning clear. Dan logged-tood sunbason. See my and Dave's species accounts. Basically the lizard went into the sun and stayed there, making only occasional forays into the shade to explore or try to escape + definitely not thermoregulating by a simple in-out movement. The toad slumbered around, some sun, some shade, and ended up in the shade. afternoon- windy from west, no rain, Dave hunted ref streams and collected 1c toad and 2 breeding & unsexable.

Followed the telemetered lizard until he woke up, then caught him. Sprayed him back, which made little difference. Despatched him, saw Sedocerus alticolus run stream. Put the legged telemeter in a new tood and set with him until 6:34 when he emerged from under his rock and disappeared before I could embated the radio from its ground goal. Weather from noon to 2 or 2:30 sunny and hot, followed by cold rain until about 6 off and on. Hot enough so that the lizards may have been feeding and thermoregulating. Dissected Hypophylum burrow #1, a burrow used formerly by our telemeter lizard overnight. It went down to a depth of about 4", narrowed to a finger-sized hole, then opened up into a large two tunnel with a dry grass, matted, nest. See species account for Burrow no. 2. 3/24 Down to freezing again, morning clear, ants & Dose hunted for telemetered toads but didn't find them. Packed up, stopped in Caparo, then drove to Yavita Creek (13 km NE Tarata).

Searched for Todd's lizards at the reef in a cold drizzle. Found one huge lizard under a flat rock together with a medium toed-frog, plus a tiny toed of a species other than the yellow-foot kind, and one other medium toed-frog. Centa put out 25 small skimmers and split out 22 large skimmers x. Evening calm and clear. March 25 13hrs NE Tarata. Numerous trunks during night. One staffers and found a slot. My traps caught one Phyllotis darwini and Centa caught 3 Abedon arduna and 4 Phyllotho. Minimum temp creought 27°. Morning clear, calm. Lots of Timantia calling. Dave shot one. He also saw hummer in the cave, looked like it was feeding young. Light rain in afternoon. Evening calm, partly overcast, then scattered clouds, then clear. Very young running mice. March 26 Minimum about 32°. Frost. Numerous thin clouds. During the night when the truck convoy went through, heard a shot. Ditto's night before lost. Went down to the reef at 6:45 a.m. to Temperatures-integrette a lizard. Found a big one, infiltrates an integrator, then watched him through a cold windy morning. He finally submerged in a bank-reef scramble. Dave debled the hummer's nest and it contains young, evening cloudy. Dave left on a truck about midnight March 27 morning quite cloudy. For minimum realized notes. Pocketed up and went down to the reefs to look for our temp-integrated lizard. Found him just about as he was emerging, at 1/2°. Moved some more skimmers for Al Bennett, then drove down the hill to

acaquia camp (11,500') for rest and relocation; a few Queniu trees were in bloom with long pendulous flowering stamens. As you come down the Quenua quies out just about where the cactus coetus begins. At acacia camp (mountain scrub) things are quite green and lots of things flowering (but only a few Cactas flowers). Saw metal workers working on tents, and saw 2 labagora squabbling. Zonotrichus singing, thurules, doves, etc., a few big Cerne blooms. Have the impression of greener and more flowers than 2 weeks ago; much of its greenness is not from ground cover but from new growth on the bushes (plus brudelia). The growth on the bushes will probably be frowned by goats etc., at or was our campsite near shell, burrows, coral, & clavars! Mar 28 Heavy dew. Left about 8:30 for Tarota. Visited + shuffled tents, then drove to the Tillandzia camps NE of Tacua. Vegetation same. Saw nightjar on the study area, on ground, at dusk, and heard some bird chirking + calling overhead but couldn't see it. Mar 29 Dew on car overnight (clear), heard seed snaps at dawn, saw lizard tracks on study area. The barcan is about 1m deep and is about 30 yds from the inland edge of the grid. Big tillandzia are 16" tall, To Tacua about 200m.

Pearson 1974 Tues. Mar. 19. [illegible] east of Matarain, 600 ft., Dept. avequiba, Peru after 2 days in Tacna getting the truck licensed etc, finally left about 10:30 A.M. Lots of Zootrichia capensis screeching about the city, such as Hotel Tacna and the Palace along Arequipa Bolognesi. Neither saw nor heard a single English Sparrow. The Zootrichias seem to have moved north that used to screege along Bolognesi. Drove north to Moquegua. The scrubby plain north of Tacna that was green last year in March is all dried up, but lots of mice there. Arrived Moquegua about 12:45. Post office closed, not open until 3 p.m., so we left for Mollendo. Fairly good, almost dried-up vegetation coming down into Matarain. Lots of mouse and/or lizard trails at one place where we stopped. The zone between Matarain and Mollendo, recommended by Holt-Hugbee, is dry, almost as "dust" as Novo Dava in 1973 March. Not enough rocks & shelter for mice, howerver, so we drove inland a couple of miles and camped at 5:30 p.m., clear windy. I put out about 38 small Sherman's baited with rolled oats. Center put out 15 large Shermans. Soil powdery dry, a chalk quarry nearby. A few small butter + ivy plants in bloom, a few clusters of Cordoloba costei looking sad. The weather in Tacna was overcast all three nights but cleared each morning, March 20 2 Phyllotis darwini in my traps, are often jerudts. None in center. No Zootrichias, heard burrowing owls and I think seed scrips. No ants.

Drove into Mollendo and met Holt Hughes, then drove south to Mejia and about 10 miles beyond looking for a good mossy loma. The swampy plain at the mouth of the Rio Tambo is impressive. Lots of egrets, ducks, shorebirds, etc., surely a tremendous oasis for migrating birds. Best we could do is a steep gulley half-way between Mollendo and Matarani. A good road goes down it to an abandoned installation of some sort at the beach. (fenced, with a watchman). We camped partway down the canyon amid powdery dry soil and chalk, steep rocky slopes, and assorted green bushes down to Dry wash, a bit of dry "maize grass", a few small dry cactus cacti up in the rocks. A few days ago seen, two burrowing owls sitting out in the hot sun, and moustache rats in the powder along the road. Wrens + doves. Just before dusk set a complex toad like track included segments among angular boulder slides up on both sides of the canyon (dried weeds + some green bushes), along the dry wash which is a narrow gulley full of weeds and bushes in chalky soil, out along a wall and among boulders on the valley floor. Lots of mouse footprints around the edge of the vegetation along the dry wash. afternoon hot & bright sun, (how can the burrowing owls sit out there and take it?). A few doves at dusk, big + small shrews, march 21 night clear. My 70 traps had 3 mice, (along the bushes in the gulley), and 11 Phyllotis darwini.

acuta had 39 big + little shrews, mostly in the valley bottom; caught 1 marosa and 1 Phyllotis. The Phyllotis could care less about the vegetation at the bottom of the canyon, they liked the boulders on the slopes. All were carrying tules or rocks. Breeding males, juveniles and a pregnant female among those dissected today. Spend morning pelting lungs etc., afternoon sterning. Hot and sunny. 28° in the shade at 3 p.m. But 18 big shrews upon the north slope where the tules roll down the slope. Got a good look at a medium-large Lusionan while pelighting last night. March 22 May 18 shrews in what was good Phyllotis habitat cast night (all in rocks below the road shrubs) caught only one mus. Night partly with thin overcast but day clear and hot. Embossed lungs and dissected in morning, then visited with Hughes in Wolbrido. He calls our composite Oreboda Aqualina. He said there was some rain 2 months ago which produced a modest flowering, apparently enough to start the mice breeding. Then drove up the hill toward Arequipa. Vegetation best at about 1500 ft. At 1820 ft among green yellow daisies, white verbesinas, new florets of Zornetrelbia, at 2740 m is a feet peak with shrubbed cacti in the floor of the canyon along the old road best appreciated from the waffle end of the road. D drove until after dark and camped at 8 p.m.

our last year's compost at 3200 ft. alone canavá. all dried up. saw no mice footlighting. march 23 Vegetation includes a thick-stemmed sorrel, not quite dried up, and some low cylindrical cacti that look like cow pies from a distance. chobani-musti-pelufieku also but then hazed up. Prove north to atiquipa, numerous cordos. Numerous conversations with assorted people who seemed knowledgable indicate that atiquipa was unusually lush last year, with rains lasting all the way up into April. Hence our green photo from last year was at a season when things ordinarily would be dry. This year is unusual also because of some rains about 2 months ago. Everyone agrees that last year there occurred a spectacular outbreak of rats, which destroyed much of the harvest. Much all agree that they were bigger than the Phylotis darwinii on our pinning board. We camped up the valley about 2 miles east of atiquipa, 1200 ft. Olives, fruit trees, and other crops north the stream. The hills fairly green with knee-high to waist-high bushes, mostly Erndelia in full bloom, but several other species mixed in, all barely grazed by cows + goats. A sprinkling of trees about 12 feet tall: a big-leaved one with milky sap locally called Platanilla, a legume with fairly large leaflets and rose- like thorns and broad orange pods 3 or 4 inches long, and another finer-leaved legume with very long thorns. also clumps of tall Cereus cactus (blooming) frequently.

supported by trees. Very few weasels, just before dark I put out 18 big Sherman's at good holes at the base of tree and cactus in a sea of senedelas. Also 16 large Sherman's along a stone wall around an olive grove which was a sea of vast-high weeds. Anita put 20 traps along its gallery in senedelia salutat. Fosotrichia in flocks of a dozen, but heard singing twice (maybe same individual). Crimson flycatcher, 2 sizes doves, burrowing owls, small humming heard Petropora, 2 sparrow hawks, barred barn owl. There are said to be turmorous. March 24 Night warm, clear, dew on car but bushes dry. Only captives were 3 large Rattus rattus along the stone wall around the olives. A Barouze and breeding owls. Boxes at 2 burrowing owl holes revealed akodon, leviucosa, Oryzomy's?, Mus, and a quite small creature such as Phyllotis amens. Other plants common are a small tobacco that they call taboilla. The flowers of the ligure tree are very sticky, arranged in spikes like bubbleys but smaller, have a fairly yellow tongue with red design, Stamona [illegible] close at. Got 40 small Sherman's about 11 a.m. in the muddy pasta olive grove, some near the brook, others along wall about 30 yds from brook. A few in lush green grass, and some in a taller deambos-grass. March 25 2 mi. E. Atiquipa. Evening cloudy but clear before A.M. Dew on grass so that few Bidens stuck. Much dew on car.

Trefi: forgot to mention 20 museum specials baited with corn used or bacon set in gridellos, yesterday's trail line, at base of castle etc. Auto set 30 museum specials along wall in another olive grove, among weeds, caught nothing in the griddola; in my small shelters near stream etc 3 mus and 1 young Rotters. Auto caught ( 7/3-grown Rotters, and 1 very small Calomys?, The latter in a weedy place. 80% of our traps traps were sprung. Left about 8 and drove north to the [Rio Sonas] [UNAROTE] [Rio Acari] and right to between Acari and Minas de Cobre. A series of interchier gave us assorted information. Two boys * a short way above Chocavento said there was a rat outbreak in December but that they have all disappeared. They said a famous rataza occurred in 1960. There was no way to get rid of them except to catch one, put it in a cage, and then the people had a special mass (misa) and the rats all went away. Camped in willows etc on the edge of a marshy place near the river. Lots of cotton fields, olive orchards, corn fields, bean fields etc irrigated nearby. Couldn't put out traps until 5:30 because so many birds, workers, etc., but just before dark managed to get out between to two of us about 50 large Skerwins, 5 small Skerwins and a dozen snaptraps. Some along mud walls + pepper trees, some long piles of cotton brocks, some in dry or damp irrigation ditches. Lots of birds around our camp in a meadow; mocking

birds, owls, flycatcher & several hawks, several rails (which vocalized frequently), and singing zoetrobius. They often sing from perches on tops of 5-foot high cotton plants well out in the fields. Road was paved to acari - a surprise, but poor alone acari. March 26 4 1/2 mi. E. acari, 700ft. Night clear, no mosquitoes. Dew. Trofs caught 4 mice and 2 rats; 1 often in a conspicuous hole in mudbank and 1 drowned in a trap that had been set in an irrigation ditch. They were so big and rat-like that only after much puzzling did I decide they were Oryzomys. Only 2 weeks ago the river had risen many feet and covered much of the bottom below the fields. Drove up the valley in the morning to about 5 miles above Urracote and spent the day in a group of willows now at 1200ft the river. Pure desert on either side of the irrigated strip along the river, but Tallardia high up on the ridges on either side of the valley. Hot. Then drove down the valley to 1 mi E. La Planta de la Mina de Oler acari and set scores of traps along good stone walls at edge of drying old alfalfa, pepper trees etc, abandoned fields, and green tall grass near the river. Night clear. March 27 Trofs held only 1 mouse, 1 Phyllostus dominus, and 1 small Phyllotins still in live trap. The zoetrobius at 4 1/2 mi E. acari were singing "Good morning chick", or occasionally the "chick" had a little roll. The zoetrobia at La Planta had a slight roll. Left for Bella Union thinking to go to

Pleasant 1974 Puerto Joman but were lined onto a dirt road NE up into the Cerros de Chocorento, taking off a few miles north of Bella Union. After several miles we suddenly encountered a wide paved road (transverse to ours) with a center stripe, curve signs etc. Apparently it is completely abandoned and was converted to a now-defunct and dismantled mine. We took the right branch, part abandoned foundations and deteriorating roads and finally ended in a beautiful valley filled with 5 ft high clumps of columnar cactus (a forest), flowering tomatoes, assorted other flowers, lots of grass some still green, and deep stalks looking like columnar stalks as much as 8 ft tall. We caught no signs of grazing, no people for miles. The vegetation definitely on the dry side but still quite a few flowers. We camped at 2400 ft. on the north-west side of the valley across from a mine-dump RR track that comes straight down the hill to a loading platform. A huge mining operation can be seen one of our more stony Cero Campana 1678 m nearly, up above, probably across that valley from us. Set out a 10 x 10 grid with 10 yard spacing and set Sherman boots with cats, every station around the periphery and every other station on the middle lines. Two large Sherman followed by one small. The zebras here are saying "good morning

"cheer", lots of roll on the last, almost separate notes. Hummingbirds nesting. Fog lowered onto Cerro Campana at about 4:30 and lifted next morning. Forgot to mention Zorzilicinia singing in the lower part of Acari and saw English Sparrows there also, No early bird chorus. Had been a little dew drip off of car but it was dry at daybreak and grass/weeds dry, but a tuft of doceron fluff marking a trap was covered with dewdrops. Foggy, but soon clearing. Avita line of about 50 small traps caught 2 mice and 1 big/pregnant female Phyllotis darwin. Lots of her traps springing & empty, Bird caught only: #645 A8 Phl dar & vog open, tail short #646 H6 Mus J sd. #649 J2 Phyllotus dar J sd. Saw a big Oryzomys several times yesterday and this morning 50 yds. from the tent in a pile of stones & cactus, another about 300 yds down the road, set numerous dry Sherman for them but they don't seem to go into them, while jock-fighting, this second guy charged down his runway, jumped into the back end of a Sherman, thereby springing it, and escaped. Filled in the rest of my grid with small Shermans, so now a trap at each station except the three where mice were caught last night. Avita added

two Onychomys dens, Our test Oryz. near the tent seems to eat actual watermelon, apple, cheese, & becon - but won't go into traps to get them. Before lunch we built a scrap roofing corral and tow apart the rocks & cacti near the tent - soda. Then another one where we disturbed an onyz from his shredded Ephedra nest under a cactus branch. he ran more control, then to another clump, and we finally caught him by hand along the tin corral, a similar attempt with another mouse, after several mad scrambles, netted a big O phyllotis. 6 cows at lunch moved off the valley onto the grid. March 31 night + morning clear; dawn or cars. Amator live traps had 2 Phl damini, swift traps ha 3 dammini and 2 ammiene. She found a mummy of what looks like alcedors. My grid as follows: Day 4 - E8 - met Onychomys, probably caught during day yesterday and sedated own; still alive but grumpy. XO - another Onychomys / location not recorded.

Oryz was undoubtedly abundant on the grid but didn't enter traps until the 4th night, and were entered line traps elsewhere despite abundant opportunity. Left after lunch. Saw fox at close range on the way out to Bella Union. It was the size of a house cat and probably hunting lizards which were very abundant in the flat bunchos but not around canyons or on the grids. Some triangulation on the Hojo de Ruta maps at the auto club suggest that this cantonto is 8 1/2 mi. NNW of Bella Union and was known as the Mina del Hierro area. It closed down about 6 years ago. We drove through the abandoned bedquarters village, with school, basketball court etc, and saw nobody. There was an Inca watchman at

He said last year was a wet year with great vegetation in the loma - and with a plague of rats at his chacra, where they destroyed crops etc. He said the ones they killed were all males. He thinks they breed off in the loma and invade from there. It is reported from Loma by about 2 miles of absolute desert. It gets irrigation water from the Cerrit valley. He says

the vegetation this year is fairly good, and that it rained in December. Rains are quite unpredictable, howerer. It said usually they get their rain at the time of Sierra storms (Dec-Feb), not in sympathy with the coasted page. The flora in the two valleys was quite different. Ours had a forest of ceasts, but none in the valley to the west where the mine building were. No trees in our valley and very few eleewhere. In spite of the 6 hours, growing prefect in our valley was negligible - practically the only flora in Peru about which I can say that. Lots of grasses. Ground cover 50 to 100%. The tomatoes were most spectacular, than an orange flowered spreading "climbing" in large clumps and white over-castings. Tallest ceasts were 14 ft; the usual, 5 to 6 ft. They had 6, 7, 8, or 11 flutes, all with 3" diam blossoms white or crimson. Also a smaller tabular caestus with deep red flowers and a smallish one with almost-spherical fruits. Valley was loaded with large raptors - butoes and tiggers, a falcon slightly larger than sparrow hawks, sparrow hawks; 3 or more Sycostylo (eating insects only), 2 or more barn owls every night; a colt rimulgid, hummingbird nesting, warrens abundant, Phrygillus alaudins singing in air and feeding young, Eufelia plus a "morning dove", a small almost-black peafester, mocking birds, a flock of brown jeterds, Zorotrichis singing with lots of tail on east note. Parakeets, Snuffs - many others. But no early morning bird chorus.

Pearson 1974 March 31 (Sat) This is the "best" Loma I have seen. It is not wet + drifty like some of those in central Peru in August, it does not have trees of Atiquipa and probably not as reliable moisture, but atiquipa is so heavily grazed that [illegible] the northless Erindeta dominater. Bello Union has sandy glass, a variety of flowers, cactus. I doubt that it has the big yellow lillies of Papa Leon ete. What saves it from the fate of atiquipa is the absence of a stream. When a stream is present, people use it for irrigation which (a) keeps the human / population high and (b) keeps the livestock high. When the Loma is all eaten out, they toss the cattle [bull], burros, horses, sheep, and goats a handful of alfalfa or weeds (alternative prey) to keep them going until a sprig of grass appears in the Loma. Then they toss their loads up into the hills for the day. Drove south and camped after dark at Atico. When passing Atiquipa I noticed two nice valleys just north, with lots of trees. The more northerly of the two had a road going up into it, apparently into the tree. April 1 Drove most of day and arrived Uroquayno 4:30 p.m. Supplies, then off the Cajones-Toquejols road to a campsite, down now place to get off the road until about [illegible] 12,700 ft (Attwater had said 1500 ft at Uroquayno), so we parked at side of road (very broad road). Yankee miner, night clear. April 2 Morning clear. Front on sleeping bag. Vegetation a mixture of tola, weeds (mini-rod) and cactus. Drove up to a benchmark (4048m) to spend day.

but center, so both down to a meadow at about -> 12,000 ft + just off of the Cajones-Torquay Road. Spent the day there, set traps among boulder talus below the road: bushes, trees, weeds, some grass but not bunchgrass (4048 m castola + richu). In spite of the abundance of defidophyllum + several bunches, the absence of bunchgrass and abundance of shrubs and other such little annuals makes this seem lower than altflora. The dominant animal is thousands of woolly caterpillars crawling everywhere. April 3 night cloudy + warmer; morning all cloudy. We had about 50 museum species and 24 small Sherman out and caught 3 Bolomys leiposthi, 1 Ph. magister, and 12 Ph. darwini. Most of the darwini had truncated tails. Everybody pregnant. Left down river and grand up the hill, following signs to things but horrible red soil no other care on it. Eventually get to Soap Rocks. = 13,360 ft altimeter check: at benchmark 4048 m altimeter said 12,800 ft a benchmark at Soap Rocks said 4451 mm, altimeter said 14,140. Here: altimeter's reading 550 ft too low. When we made camp altimeter read 13,380 = 13,930 came past our old two camps, then on a new road, hopefully toward Santa Rosa but queer soil, saw no troutweed, no meadows, no rhass. Camped along a stream and Boobasis, defidophyllum, Festuca, and ayarita & cloudy all day. April 4 morning mostly clear, afternoon all cloudy. Spent the day dissecting owl pellets and manufaturing

RBC2. Had 17 small Sheevens out all day, but caught nothing. Saw a q Orestachillus standing on the ground at Volstrichs house. Seal singles, but heard no trumpets. Quite sterile area. We go along a stream at 13,900 ft. between Zogs Sickle and Zogs Sorasta. April 5 night overcast, clearing toward morning. Frost on windshield but not on car. Morning partly cloudy, afternoon cloudy. Drove about 10 miles, then discovered from roadscreaper that we were on the Condarine Road, so turned around and headed for Santa Rosa. Turned back to Caeserchala road just over the divide from Santa Rosa and drove back to our old Viscacha camp, food just as awful as ever. The Caeserchala Valley was full of alpacas and sheep. Hundreds of them, and a thatched hut x Decided not to stay there, so drove back almost to the turn off the main road and camped in a nice empty Valley. About 5 min E of Zogs Sorasta, 15,250 ft. Put out about 65 large + small Sherman baited with rolled coto, along stone walls. Saw anising Bolivian. Saw one band of Vicunas between here and Caeserchala: one male with a band of 10 that included at least 2 young. Started to snow - fell just before dark, and offed on all night. Full moon was bright through the clouds, so the mice had snow and moonlight. Ran part of trophy in 1 AM, but nothing. Warm + still.

April 6 Morning cloudy, about 2" of snow on ground, and occasional other flurries of growing until about 11 a.m. Sun & scattered clouds after about 2 p.m., then evening cold after sunset. My trapline above camp had 2 dead baby Phyllos hardly big enough to be out of the nest, and 2 old adults alive, but one of them later cooled in the sun. The traps around the corral across the valley were untouched. Moved them to the snowbird huts, another corral, some new traps in another rock outcrop up the road, and effaced my line in the rock above camp. Aunts has about 20 in rocks above camp. Total about 90. Saw several tenuous, herd them in A.M. but not evening, saw two, anchoring both. new camp learning to like watermelon (he was badly startled at first stuff, then gradually accepted it). Several others went near camp. A Trogonus multiformis grabbed a piece of watermelon slipped to him, cleaned it, then spat it out. Evening cold & clear, all snow gone in valley except in side of corral. Just about dark a few hail dropped about 2", another flurry or two during the night. April 7 2" of snow in A.M., cloudy. My traps at the snowbird huts had 1 chickalinks and 1 anchorage sublinis, neither actually in a house, a small corral line nothing, a small rocky tongue nothing. At 1 a.m. the original

Put out several more traps for dominii, Lots of Tinamotis singing and tracks in the snow. Hare scurries twice, no tries. Glacial polish on bed rocks, strata are WSW. a few sprinkles of hail during day, scattered clouds in afternoon, more cloudy than sunny. April 8 Night was clear for a time, leanly frost, then haze and clouds, thin ice. Traps in middle of night caught 2 more young dominii and a Ph. bolivianis, in the morning 2 more Ph. bolivianis and a big food. Yesterday afternoon a herd of several hundred llamas, alpacas, and sheep grazed up the valley and moved into the unsurveyed huts & caravels across the valley. The 4 men promptly found several of my traps, so I walked over to talk with them, and reset them. This morning the livestock moved into the valley again, with the 4 men came a horse, 3 donkeys, and 3 adult chickens (1-2 yrs). Yesterday was the first day clear enough to see sunrise & sunset, and it appears that we are south of Lago Juninada, something like 5-10 miles. Lots of traps out for dominii and Chrd/Chardanas before the men came up; but backed during half of this dark period. April 9 then heard of traffic at midnight: 1 adult Phyllosto - partly clear. Morning mostly clear,

two more adult Darwin's and two juveniles of less than 20g x released them, as well as two other caught earlier. Day mostly sunny until noon, then salted cloves and occasional hail. The shepherd across the valley comes to scene on his people everyday: Pedro Garcia Nina. He calls this location Punta Perdida. He says the llamas belong to a sort of cooperative, the sheep are his. Every night the laste [illegible] are herded into the vicinity of its corral but are not forced to enter it. In the morning, however, they are confined in the corral for an hour or more - to prevent them from grazing too far away during the day. It is 28 Apr 08, born here. This morning saw and heard two male cviccas having a fight - close up the valley on the east side. Then got further, but haven't seen them yet. Have seen hummingbirds twice, on the ground or perching in low tules or on rocks. They have no Chiquiroyos for many miles. Big Lizards come out when it is warm. Have crossed the road many times, with its myriads of [illegible] & middles & remotes but have seen no large otards there (nor heard them). Caught 1 Bufo in a trap, and today saw a little yellow-footed one walking along. Saw 1 carder and 2 hawks soaring over what this glacier.

Season 1974 Spent the day processing mouse traps. Left out one trap live consisting of about 40 big shrews and some small shrews. April 10 Almost no snow during night. Nothing in traps. The local shepherds, Pedro Garcia, calls this location Punta Perdida, mail address Majocruz. He asked if he could have a live trap so he could get mouse or rat blood to drink for medicinal purposes). Left about 10 am, drove to Santa Rosa and Majocruz (where there was no gasoline), then to the acagria camp above Tarata. Saw one band of vicuñas at an agríe school place between Majocruz and Valota, and a "herd" of 4? rheas on Lampa de Cafayaco. Stopped and took photo of our legard camp near Challacralca. Tola camp as yaveta camp looked same as in 1971, Quetim and acagria camps definitely greener. Cactus not blooming, so no Patagona and few other hummingers. April 11 Dried & packed, stopped to visit in Tarata, then to Tacna where we arrived in mid-afternoon. Rock camp about same as in 1971, but some green annuals at lower altitude than in 1971. Unlike a month ago, the promenade on Avenida Bolivar in Tacna was full of English Sparrows and no no zorzitrichios. A few swatches of zortrichio seen elsewhere, but nothing like last month.

Hansen 1974 Hastings Reservation, Monterey Co., Calif. Sept. 1+2 To Hastings with Anita, Ali, and Patty Bolin. Made wire baskets to replace the disintegrated plastic garbage cans and hung them on the same steel posts as the garbage cans. Then added plastic bags inside them. After hanging, 7 diameters measured on each of seven baskets varied from 18" to 20", average of 14 diameters on 7 baskets was 19.02 inches. There are now 30 baskets (there were 30 plastic garbage cans previously). Also, 8 basket sites were skipped because there were no oaks overhead; these are considered to be hypothetical baskets, hence 38 baskets of 19.02" diam. = 59.7532 in² x 38 = 2,270.62 in² of sampling surface. I have ignored one site near the middle of the line where there should be a post, but isn't. There were no acorns overhead at this site. Elsewhere on the reservation several of the oaks are stuffing with acorns this year. Along this track line there are a few acorns, but not many; a few, alas, have already fallen, alas. Oct. 30 To Hastings with Dave Rogery and Ken Emptied the acorn bags and got 32 nuts which weighed 45.6g fresh, or 30.3g after drying several weeks,

December 1974 Hastings Reservation Dec. 12 To Hastings with Patton, about 3 PM (overcast) set the oak and meadow lines and to set the chaparral line; museum species ad peanut butter, I saw only 3 good muleys in the meadow (traps of one of them) and 2 muleys in the oaks (traps of one of them - Evening Soots [illegible] mist + drifty but cleared later at night. Dec. 13 Ice on car. All day clear. Chaparral traps at 7:30 AM had 2 Keithros, 6 truis, 1 Linnaeus calf, 3 Dipos, and 1 Taricha. Oak line held 1 Keithro. Meadow line 10 maniculates and 1 Keithro. In PM chaparral line had 1 sage sparrow, 2 wren tits, and 1 golden crow. Saw 2 smallish Scoloforus. Dec. 14 Night clear, light frost. In AM chaparral line had 6 truis, 1 Keithro, 1 Linnaeus calf. Oak line had 2 musters sic. Meadow line had 5 maniculates and 1 Keithro. Picked up acorns in morning, covering all of the trap lines and the paths to them from the home house; about 2 - 3 gallons, some of them very fresh but mostly quite old, surely month-old. Saw a bobcat on Haystack Hill out in the grass. Found a dead mole with head eaten off. All 3 species of Peromyscus seem to have become in storms. The acorn "buckets" yesterday had about 5 more acorns in them. One of them had been everted by the wind - but still contained an acorn. Chaparral traps in PM held 1 brown touche. Found a mouse-eaten valley-oak acorn at Station 24 in the chaparral, which is about as far in as you can get,

Saw young mountain lion tracks at the new water tank above the Itastings Cabin. The new collection of acorns consisted of 8 acorns, 5 of them small, and after 3 weeks 7 over-air drying weighed 7.9g. This gives a total for the year of 40 acorns of dry weight 38.2 g, which is by far the biggest harvest so far.

Alderostera not quite in bloom. Is spreading outward (by growth of existing bushes, few seedlings), a few holes and runways along the meadow line but more really sapre. Griffin has been harvesting grass pellets in this woodlot and seeing numerous micrutes there. Parvace, Griffins, and Reets all say lots of Peromyscine in houses. Oak line until a few interesting holes. May 30 Night clear, light dew. Rantrope 5:30-8:00 PDT. Lots of mice + Californias in chaparral, nothing in oaks, no hatters or micrutes. Day sunny and warm. No birds in traps during the day (or mice). Picked up carnivore droppings on the chaparral line, a fair number but more fresh, mostly quite old but since December when I picked them up on previous censuses. No carnivore tracks on the road. Bradford arrived 8 pm. May 31 Night clear, trace dew. Rantrope 6-8 AM. See summary, especially Oak with Perogasthus, mice, and californias. It seems to be a year of leucine californias. Still no micrutes. Have seen white both evenings. Day sunny and warm. Picked #5 cats on rest of lines. June 1 Night clear at first, then scattered local fog. Some dew. Rantrope 5:30 a.m. For summary see next p. Saw no carnivore tracks but heard 1 foot.

On the east side of the freeway about halfway between the Sta Maria turnoff and the turnoff for our Aobredo there were about 8 or 10 large teres flying around, several of them carrying minnows and some of them dive-bombed me. Looked for reeds but saw none. The quebrada is quite dry, the pepper trees pretty scrubby, but some in bloom and some already dry-mush bushes blooming. Saw several hummers of 2 species: a large one with long curved bill and dark collar, and a very small greenish brownish one. I don't think there are any new mud flowers. Camped at our usual place about 3 or 4 miles up the valley. Some of the mini-Tillandsia in bloom, the Passiflora quite lavender. The big Tillandsia plants on the south side of the valley look rather dry with partially rolled leaves, but they are in full bloom. The Petala sucker orange, as I had remembered, but its blooms quite purple. While I strolled through the tiny hummers was feeding on them (the Passiflora), and also a black fuzzy bee-fly. These flies are also working on a bush in bloom with dry mush. * stripe on side of head, white band on tips of tail feathers Concerning the wasp-gecko food-chain, camp was near some blooming bushes in the dry mud, and fleas,

Pearson 1975 North Gulley, Dave Quennelager. Could recognize the yarata beds from the panorama photos, both here at in South Gulley, but none of them had nails in them. Either Carol mis-remembered or somebody stole all the nails. Tony Buscombe caught a cold Gecko under rocks. Drove up the hill to yarata camp, which looks just the same. Dry. Put out 16 large Sherman near camp, and looked over the yarata line. Breeze up canyon until 6 pm, then calm. nov.23 yarata camp, 13 km NE to cerca 4,500 m, night slightly bazy, but frost on car, clear at sunrise, but cloudy bright beginning about 7:30. Nothing in traps measured Carol's yarata. Couldn't find many of the ones marked with paint. Heard one batch of Triceratops at daybreak. Lots of traffic on the road, day and night, much of it Bolivian. Hunted for Cholojolea about 10:30, arrived at the lizard camps about 2 pm. Windy, some clouds. Saw 1 large male lizard out about 3 pm, and another under a rock at 4:30 too warm to catch. Also a female out at about 4:30. Put out about 20 museum specimens at 4:30, baited with rolled oats, around a couple of mini-circles and across the Festuca -Sefridophyllum, nov.24 AM cloudy, no frost, but plenty ice on rocks. Probably became more sunny, but always some clouds about. Hunted lizards for about 6 hrs. Saw one out as early as 7:30, but she went down never tried to chase

Pearson 1975 her tad apparently stayed down until an hour or so later I dug her up. Dug off a big mole that had spotted yesterday, and moved another 3 and another 4. Saw about 3 other adult 4+ and one adult 3 never got away. Also saw one Siderius altercalus along the stream. No toads or frogs in sight of turning over lots of rocks. Drafts line caught 3 Ambystoma talpinus and 1 Bdomys bellingerii, Still sunny at 2 pm although clouds to the east, but 11 big Sherman's with rolled oats in good rocky level along stream (other side, downstream). Lift out 22 small toads. Evening hazy, brightened clear night. nov. 25 Morning fairly heavy clouds, 26° at 5:30 am, no frost. Another hazy-bright with shadows. Within Sherman's downstream, 2 more talpinus in small toads. Licked all of them up. Ran a photo-phygophylum or rock afternoon with big moles #1 and #2. Saw 2 adult 4 leggers while picking off trap at 9 am. Tony found 2 1-inch toads under a boulder at 8:00. Cold cold toads. They were under a large seal boulder ad quite deep, at least 1 foot deep where the soil was damp. Small black tadpoles in a long puddle off of stream.

January of photo-pyro vs rock: sun was always filled with halo, but strong enough for shadows. Match iron down sometime before 820. Inside shed wall, little activity. The surface temps were taken with thermocouple under several layers (3+4) of masking tape with a wad of cotton between 2 layers. Some of these surface readings were drifting, hence not too reliable. Lizard #1 weighed 20 g, Lizard #2 weighed 16 gram. The rock lizard #2 ran 3.9° to 6.6° colder than the pyro lizard, #1 when switched, at the end, #2 after 5 minutes on the rock was 1° cooler. Calibration of thermometers.

When I went back after lunch to re-run the photo equipment, the sun had moved so as to put the area in shadow, soldier thermometers and calibrated them, but had to wait for colder weather because the river water at 1012 pm was up to 16°. Hunted lizards in cloudy-sunny afternoon, but saw only females or juveniles (but saw 1 baby). Sky at least 2/3 clouds all day.

Minimum and temp at 5 am 13°. no frost, morning almost all clear, a few clouds, afternoon windy and increasing clouds, but seemed to be sunny over canals until at least 2:30 (now). Temp peaked 22 1/2° at 1:18, and the temp. and max was 18° for hour. Tony caught more lizards, and I did "effervescents". Did a repeat of yesterday's color stamp + rock x pyreno, only with telented lizards #2 & #3 (#1 did from time to other, so no need ice for the other 2. Results: Beautiful. The pyreno lizard warmed up faster, the rock lizard never could make it to 35.8° above 30°. (I had kept the rock shaded until ready to start) The rock lizard promptly warmed up to the same temp as the pyreno lizard when I put into Pyrenophyllum.

1975 Nov. 26 (cont.) The rock lizard was then sprayed (rock half) with silver = no diff from control liquid. Then sprayed all over (top side only) = no obvious diff. Then sprayed bottom all over = slightly cooler (less than 1/2 degree). Then chose 4 adult females of about same size and placed them out in bright sun on Pycrophyllum. Their equilibrium temperatures were in this order from hottest to coldest: black, normal + belly silver, silver all over + under, range 4 to 5°. The above four were then moved to a cold rock covered with sleeping bag. During cloudy-bright they were consistently black warmest, normal next, silver coolest (silver belly excepted). The difference never exceeded 3°. When moved back to Pycrophyllum they sorted out the same, not diff 4°. Then compared dead #1 with live #2 (yesterday's pair) placed out on Pycro in wind and hot sun. The live one reached 36° then dropped off a little. The dead one read 37°. Good comparison because the live one lay motionless the whole time, so the position of the dead one matched well. The live one did not overheat (but sun/Pycro and windgave up to 22 1/2° and did not keep him smooth after. Natural selection favoring the skin color of lizards for thermoregulatory purposes doesn't seem to have improved more than a degree or two C° over black or silver! Then ran black and silver film canisters in wind and hot sun, small hole on shady side covered with masking tape. The Schnabels then slid through a small hole in the tape. Tight fit. The black can ran about 5° warmer - and same temp. as a lizard!!

Burning all morning shift for a few whisks. Nothing in the trap-tube like after yesterday morning or today. Paused it after. Spent the morning on lizard experiments. The worms are on pyro about same as yesterday with black-normal-silver sequence. When done on cold rocks they could not achieve as high a temp., even though sun was higher and presumably hotter. Squine, however, was not the same. After lunch broke camp and drove to a few miles beyond Copazo looking for shear, then to the pueblo Ancuacare where I presented a school photo to the teacher (out of two others were in the photo). Then drove back to our coral compost of previous years. Very windy, but traps 5-6. Still cold windy at 7:10. nov. 28 Some mist for most of the night, min. about 20°. Morning clear.

Also saw one other lively lizard on the area, I think. Saw curly bird droppings but no Burline's tracks. Mouse tracks just below the area. Rocks on top of the hill have all been scraped away, and there are motorcycle tracks up to the top. Cheerful Charlie's B16 Tillandsia sign looks the same as before.

O. Pearson 1976 14 Parral Prov. Mendoza, Argentina. Oct.21 Left Mendoza about 1 p.m. and drove to San Rafael, all paved, then to Monte Coman. Camped in sagebrush about 2 miles N of the Rio Diamante, north of Monte Coman. Lots of vineyard and fruit (apple, quince, almond, peach) around Mendoza and San Rafael, apples and locust in bloom, all irrigated. Mendoza is dry dry, native vegetation gets lush in a line towards Monte Coman, (two railroad cars at Monte Coman). Saw 2 trice of tinamous (Eudromia elegans) between San Rafael and camp, plus a couple of others singles including one right at campsite. When we arrived at camp about 6:30 p.m. a bulldozer was dozing sagebrush in a strip along the main (dirt) road. It was being followed by about 20 chimangos (presumably looking for squashed quince [fig, figado] etc). Like a plow being followed by sea gulls. The sage brush is very rich: Sarrsa up to 6 ft.,

only stunned (its other with headquarters buried), several other guinea pigs scared off or squashed. Also several lizards, one smallish rattle snake (not collected), one "gophersnake", and one "blind snake". The latter was squirming in the works of the bulldozer. Then went to Monte Coman and loaded (we thought) for Goico and media Juva by the "easy" southern road along the railroad. Our information was garbled or incomplete and we spent the day herding more or less east between the railroad and the Rio Diamante. All flat monte (farrea and many other lumber, occasional than trees, occasionally a plot of pampa grass. Lots of birds and guinea pigs, the latter sometimes 8 ft up in trees and bushes. They (guinea pigs) surely are one of the most important converters here, about 2 o'clock we were having an overheating problem and losing a pint of water every mile or so from the boiler. After stopping at several Puestos for water (precious house with thorn corrale, goats, horses, cows, a well about 20 ft. deep), we cut a hose and bypassed the heater (which was blocked). About 3 o'clock came to a sandy place that I didn't think we could cross. Went back to the last Puesto where we had inquired about the route and were assured that we could make it. 10 minutes later we were hopelessly stuck. Worked for 3 hours with shovel, poles and brushes, still stuck when a gaucho from the Puesto showed up, helped dig etc., then hitched his horse to the front bumper with a rawhide rope, mounted, and with motor + horse we progressed a couple of car lengths. Then repeated. But by 7, Confided in the middle of the road about a mile further on. Anita put out 9 Shermana and 12 museum specials while I walked back to thank the gaucho. Tadarida (see Oct. 23) Oct. 23 Night clear, temp < 38 F. Numerous two-toed calling during the night. A few last night also. It is a remarkably deserted

sound, tu - co pause tu - co pause etc, frequently ending with a tuc tuc tuc tuc. Heard it after daybreak but not during sunny part of day. At an abandoned, crumbling puente yesterday found a Todarida between a ceiling beam and a wall. Since we were lost all day, I guess lengthily at 10 km N [illegible] Amila's traps held one mouse, in scrub along road, no grava. Battery ran down, motor barely turned over. Waited about an hour for warmer weather, then it caught. Drove to Orajera, obtained, then drove to Monte Covan. Picked up 3 hitchhikers on the way. Saw a pair of Bolichetus, lots of guinea pigs, one small ch arnoldella (not the mulita and not the pichi), many caracaras (verloft because of the telephone poles, which are in short supply in the monte). The guanacos should have some big snake + raptor/predators. Drove south to Orajera, then along the railroad to Monte Covan (lunch) then to San Rafael for lubrication and new battery, [illegible] orjara then towards El Somiedo but stopped at the RR Station Los Parlamentes, which is 60 km NNE Malargue and, according to the station master, 1,170 m altitude. It is at the edge of a huge pampa with almost pure juncosa, very sandy soil; north of the station is sago brush. Put about 12 museum speicle around piles of quebrado RR ties in the juncosa, and strung a hot net in the courtyard of the station house. Wind moderate stopped before dusk, returned somewhat during nights, [illegible] set two tuc's other tuffs in the fence. Oct. 24 Caught 6 Todarida in the net, 5 of them before 9:30 p.m. are ant star lizards in the mouse traps, as two tucos. Station master calls them tuldugues and decides their call tuc tuc. He seems to be a good informant. Says there are lots in the attic winter and

summer, but snow in summer. Winter temps get down to -10C. He hunts lots of medium-sized armadillos. People from Matorque come and hunt many graceros in nearby hills. Water table is only a meter or two down, somewhat salty, a layer of salitre. Oil + gas wells and lots of drillship. He says there are abundant cool mines near both El Bosmedo and Molargio (up roads to the west, I think). One of them has a hotel up the same road, a man named Castano (near Molargio?) knows all about one of them. Left about 9:30, early lunch in Molargio, then south on Route 40. Man in Molargio says summer temps up to 30, winter down to -10C, but snow only about once a winter, and rain only a half-dozen times a year. Lots of alamo plantation which are said to motive to cutting size (for lumber) in 5 yrs. Camped 3 p.m. in a zedo canyon about 1 mile west of the Rio Grande about 10 km by road south of Cordas Blancas and 60 km S Molargio. Root-ridden habitat of eshedra, thorn bushel, occasional bunch grass, lots of stoney-gravelly soil visible (maybe 30% plant cover). A narrow quebrado next to camp, dark cliffs across the Rio Grande and on this side also about 1 mi. south of camp. Set about 35 museum species in a rocky cliffy outcrop and among eshedra + thornbush, also a lot not across our side gully (with stream) and across a big galvanized culvert under the road. Dinta also set traps Oct.25 Night clear, 34°. Nothing in nets or traps. Very few birds of any sort, no chimangos (sterility index). Left about 9:30 and drove south on Route 40. Junch at Barruecas, through Clos Madal. All senin-ark, sagebrush, occasional striped Toxteles, usually with Poplar tree. Saw one troop of bees, nocturnous, fides or quiver

Pigs. Some rat sized hystricomorph seems to live in the middle of big thorn clumps. Camped at 7 p.m. along the Rio Viejo Neuquen. Sandy hummocks with sage growth along the river, then rising to sage brush stony desert. Lots of rat-sized droppings in the middle of the sandy hummocks built around thorn bushes. All day was somewhat overcast. Oct 26 Night cleared up, minimum 33°. My traps ± 30 MS in scrubby sage caught 1 Eligmodontia; Acuto's in sandy hummocks caught 1 Oryzomyx and 5 Eligmus (including 1 tail only). She had 44 traps out including 10 Sherman. This location is the eastern crossing of the Rio Viejo Neuquen, 45 km 53E Churamal, south side of the river. I saw a colony of large rabbit-size hole and rabbit droppings, no tracks and no eyesight while jacklighting. Just before leaving we started to search over the hummocks with rat-dropping among the thorn-stems. A very large male thylactis ran out to a neighboring hummock; caught him by hand. Anywhere else? Left about 9:30 after shining. Saura rabbit newly dead on road about 20 miles farther south, a few miles north of Churriaca. Along the Rio Zoledo about 5 miles N of the R. Agrio we stopped and looked in a large mine west of the rd and a small mine east of the road. The latter had shows rat dropping on floors wall; a girl near the large mine said no rats, but yes in cliffs at the R. Agrio. The big mine was cool and would have been a good campsite some time (but too cool for nursery colony). Lots of rabbit signs along the R. Zoledo. Had lunch at the Rio Agrio and looked in "pitholes" and crevices in the cliffs for bats; saw only 2 places with a few

droppings, no bats. Forgot to mention that the station master at San Perlementer said that there were bats in the roof of his house winter and summer, but more in summer. Then drove south through Zapala to the Arroyo (Rio) Picun Leufu and camped along the river at a puesto that had been flooded out a few months ago by a rise of at least 12 feet in the river. Willows/poplars laying around, partially cleared up by chainsaw and wood sawyer. Put into a lot net at a break in the willow trees near the river. Antar set 3 or 4 traps near some mouse tracks in the sand. The terrain and vegetation begins to look like Patagonia at Zapala: more grass and bunchgrass, bushes more compact less scruffy, low mesas, goats giving way to sheep, horses, and cattle. Oct. 27 night clear & calm. Ants saw late times. Temp. 23 deg F minimum. Sometime during the night a horse traversed over the lot/pole. Nothing in net. No mice, saw robit, Left early and drove to Barilochi via Jemin de San Ande and San Martin de los Andes. Lots of European rabbits squashed on road and a few seen alive. Much wandering on back roads because of misleading road signs or no signs. Put up at Hotel Acopga Turife, cherry tree, Scotch broom in bloom in Barilochi. One of the Meltofouque just coming into leaf. Oct. 28 night clear but somewhat overcast during day. Effect the morning with Dr. Eduardo Rafasfort and Gilberto Sallopin at the Fundacion Barilochi and with Sr. Gregorio, Director of the Museum of Patagonia. They developed a few leash for bats. Put two nets in the

archology evening at the chalet 4 km west of town (owned by an Deftification officer). Lots of droppings at what appears to be a night roost, and a hole in a beam where the caretaker says bats emerge. Oct.29 night clear + cold. In the morning I looked at the net at the night - roosting corner of the house, but none in the net covering the north porch where bats were said to emerge from a beam. Shopping, drove to Elao-Elao and cut for some Chusquea canes for bat poles. Returned to the Archology house in the evening, tidied the nets, and waited for bats to ermerge. Some were flying but saw none emerge. Overnight, temp. about 56° F. The caretaker of the house says bats are present winter & summer, but more abundant in summer. Oct.30 morning clear, temp. °C, two myxies in the night - roof net. Caretaker says they were caught after midnight. Coffee with Wm. and Hilda Rumboff, 3 1/2 km W Bariloche. She has seen Sasmurus here, feeds hummingbirds (2 species), and says the hummers are present winter & summer. People take torpid hummers to a taxidermist friend of hers. Lunch with Rafaporto, then out to Hotel Gog Moreno, near Elao-Elao, turnoff at 20 km. The garage at the hotel had a good bat atlie, one torpid & myxotis at 4 p.m. (air maybe 6°), and lots of droppings. Informant that says bats are present winter and summer, has seen a group of them torpid, feed down, when he pulled boards off the side of a house (the Elao-Elao Hotel, I think). Snow here settles as much as 200/30 cm. There is a sharpcline of rainfall from 500mm at the Bariloche airport to 1000 mm at the town to >1500 mm in the mountains to the east,

at 7 p.m. (cloudy + cold) we string 3 nets across the front of the garage. Stood watch until 9:30. Saw insects flying and numerous bats flying. One & caught in net before we left at 9:30. Temp. in Bariloko at 10 p.m. was 9 1/2 °C. Oct-31 morning partly cloudy. Temp. at 8:30 AM was 10 1/2 °C. Fourteen & mystics in the nets. The local caretakers (Paulo + Antonio and spouses) say that there were more bats in the net at 11:00 p.m. that they were escaping, and so they killed the remainder. None visibly pregnant; none fat; all with full stomachs. Three full stomachs together weighed 2.2 g. Left about 2 p.m., drove through Bariloko then turned Pilearijen. The RR station at Mirihuan is near a deep narrow canyon with an arched wooden bridge. Too many Sunday picnickers and a soccer game to stretch nets. (Station master not there either). Drove to the next station, through bunchgrass and "pinion- juniper," and stopped there. Station surrounded by willows + poplars, good cliffs nearby, a shallow lake of several acres with ducks, lorburinas, [illegible] reedwips, etc. Nobody around. I put out about 20 traps in bunchgrass-rock-bushes and a few among railroad ties. A few small, all-yellow calceolarias blooming on the knoll where my traps are. Found one with nibbled lips, partly healed. Evening windy. One net across end of lake. Night was clear without wind, but overcast at dawn. Nothing in nets. Traps held 2 Phyllosotis and 2 red-bushed long-nosed shadon, Temp at 7 a.m. was 6°C. Willows and greybirds just leafing out; a robin (Turdus feldkandi) feeding fledgling. This station on the RR is Lento Mexico, 25 km ENE Bariloko, no mice in the calceolaria traps.

Dravo to his Pichi Senfu, skinned, asked about bats at the Estancia (more, 4 Indians said more), Dravo to Vileanigen, asked about bats at the bakery, the store, and the RR station. Everybody except the baker said more, he said they live in cliffs and fly around town at night. Dravo to Estancia Vileanigen, which is a couple of km SE of town. An English-speaking employer (not the administrator Mr Williams) said he had seen some 2 yrs ago in a rocky cliff a couple of km east of the Estancia headquarters. We drove to the site. Good fractured columns, lots of crevices, holes, and caves, but search revealed no bats. Vazcochas and saddles of accumulated vazeochs droppings. Vegetation is bunchgrass and low rounded thornbush. A 1/3rd gramin here is freezing under a thornbush about 5 yards from our tent. Tucoes twang in the grassy flat, sandy, along the stream. They give 3 or 4 very rapid rocky grunts, a 1-second pause, then repeat, not as clear a sound as the Mendezo tucoes make. They sang in the middle of the afternoon, warm & sunny breezy, contagious. Four at same time. Put out about 25 museum species in bunchgrass- thorn-barberia in rocky-cliffy place. Strung a bat net at 8 pm, first star at 9 pm, temp: 8°C, lots of moths and other insects flying. Burned lanterns near net to attract bugs and, hopefully, bats. Saw no bats at dusk. Nov 2 Temp at dawn 5°, cloudy. Tucoes singing at 4:30 AM and a daybreak, catching in net. My traps 5 red-veined alcedon and 1 big phyllothie. One two in trap.

first valley bottom, the others in rocky-crudy or cliffs. A garcho on the estancia says there was a plague last summer of such smaller mice (lauchas) that ate ropes around the corral etc. He seemed surprised that we didn't catch any of them. Various people questioned along the way south of Pilcomayo said no bats. The RR doesn't seem to have station houses, or if so (Cont.)

It was an old wooden abandoned flour mill in a charming clearing of fruit trees, willows, etc. The caretaker lived across the road (the mill is on the east side. We set up camp among Conicent ardellions under an elderberry tree and queued fresh at the edge of an orchard (cherry, apple, pear) all in bloom. This vegetation must be saying something about the climates here. The caretaker's sons had caught bats in this mill a couple of years ago. We string two nets at the mill. Howl grows and mourning love singing, roliers about.

Evening was mostly clear + calm, temp at 9 p.m. 8°C. Saw a few lote flying about 9:30, caught one Hestiotus at about 11:00 p.m. nov. 3 Night was mostly clear, but sprinkles before dawn, and overcast + sprinkle at 7 a.m., no more lote. Temp. 8°C at dawn. Insects were flying last night at dusk. almost everyone we talked to is familiar with a Gasurra of some sort. Drove south asking for lote, but most people said none. Willows are in leaf and fruit trees blooming. Place blooming in Espuel, and tulips. Day of buncheguar - red-buck - thorn bush, poplars + willows around Estancia and Patitor. Camped in windy pamfa next to shallow pond with flamingos. Temp at 9 p.m. 6°C windy. Lost about 25 trips at ante about 40. nov. 4 Wind stopped early in night*, but morning drizzly and calm, 6°C. more pamfa as we drove south all morning. Tried the road from La Sequera to Lago Fortuna but too awful, so continued south. Last night's catch was 5 Elquinontia. Location was 38 km S Gobernador Costa. 3 Elginodonta discarded: adult o??: lots 6,7,7 Saw a few gnomosa maybe 10 mi N Rio Mayo along route 40, but more (maybe 30) after turning west toward Lago Blanco. They were in the most miserable parts of the pamfa (sparsest + lowest vegetation), sometimes mixed with sheep. Libea and fruit trees blooming in various towns, and a big spiral sorbery in the desert. Everyone agrees no lote. Vegetation becomes greener + grainer as you drive toward the mountains. West of Lago Blanco it became almost pure buncheguar with the green grass in between, crossed

yaveta or low thorn hummocks and a few 5' thorn bushes or thicket. Stopped at Estancia Valle Hermosa, no dates. Then drove west hoping for trees for the night, but all pure Pampa to a big military base at the border. Beautiful snow mtns beyond. Turned back and camped 4 km w Soga Blanca, almost pure bunchgrass in rolling hills. I put about 25 traps in bunchgrass and in a sparse copse of thornbush. Ante set 20 traps in pure bunchgrass (sandy soil). Day cloudy. Afternoon windy, temp 6 C at 9 pm, still windy, scattered clouds. Nov. 5 Wind all night + still windy in morning. Smallest trap 3 C. My traps had 2 Elymmodontia (bunchgrass), 1 Abodon xantho (thorn), 1 horse muss (thorn), 1 Phyllotus (thorn, stones but no rocks). Ante caught 1 abodon xantho and 1 Reithrodon. The chest-high thorn copse is surprisingly good wind shelter. Surely the mice spent most of its life in this isolated copse. Discarded: 1 baby Elymmodontia (7gr.) 1 F Abodon xantho with scars + CL. Not bad. Left 10 am, saw 1 rhea and the guanacos again on the way back to Ruta 40, then south to Perto Moreno 2 pm. Saw 2 more rheas and a few more guanacos, one half-grown. Fields of dandelions in bloom, and reed at Perto Moreno, also lilacs. Between Perto Moreno and Bajo Carrizales we drove about 5 km off the road toward the Cuevas de San Mates but when we stopped at a puesto for road directions the mud and the road was impassable. The grader was working on it, however. The cave seems to be on the Rio Pinturas. Stopped for the night where the road crosses the Rio Ecker, 65 km S

Perto Moreno. The administrator? 1 Estevan Casa de Piedra said no loto, 2 guys stringing fence said sure, they find loto in rock crevices in the volcanic rim-rock. Numerous hollow eyes visible. We landed on a landing strip in sandy bunchgrass-low shrub. The little yellow Calea calva is beginning to bloom just as I Ptolon Perto Moreno east of Bariloche on Nov 1. Put out about 25 traps along rim rock and in thorn bush on pampa; caught put out 34. Strong hot net just below the rim rock. No wind, sky 3/4 cloudy, full moon. Temp at 9 p.m. 8°C. Felt almost eerie without wind. Nov 6 morning clear, no wind, temp 1°C. Saw no loto last night, and net untouched. Saw 2 truos of Tiraavola yesterday and one single. They were calling last night and this morning: a dust or two, less screamy, more musiced than T. pentlandi. my traps had 1 baby (abdomen) Antis' box 2— abdon (red-backed): (1 adult breeding ♂, 1 jnr with smollets) and 1 large ♂ Phyllotidocorami (large testis + accessories) Probably parabo Drove south to the Rio Belgrano - Río Chico for lunch. Saw a rhea with >9 small striped chicks. Vegetation all very low with bunchgrasses, larba, cushions. No attempt at cultivation except in towns. The sheep seem to be completely exterminated, in groups up to a couple dozen, surely 10 miles or more from nearest human. Yesterday we drove 8 hrs, all except the first 1½ hrs, on the main N-S route 40, and we passed 2 vehicles, not counting a truck stuck in the mud and another by twice trying to start it. Three hours of driving this morning we passed 1 vehicle. This person and one other in the "town" of Bajo Carretera were the only people seen all morning: no gauchos,

no nothing. Things have hardly changed since Hatcher's time. Almost everyone we talk both to mention capturing them with a "white trap", perhaps hanging white sheets? After lunch drove to Salvador Gregorio, then Estonia En Julia, some of it through and stretches into roadside, but mostly through with a few quercus + ribes (plus ubiquitous sheets and now lambs). Then west on Pte 288 to Saguna Grande, a cluster of white houses by the road. Turned north on a side track about 2 km west of the fork at Saguna Grande (or Hotel La Torre) and stumbled into a long-abandoned brick house with a Histrio hanging in the shattered entryway at the front door and another in the attic hanging on a rafter. Temp. 17° both places, both torpid, both QQ. The house is surrounded of two tennis-court- sized grassy fields rimmed with sickly willows, poplars, tamarisk-like, and alamos. The house used to be at the edge of its lake, but the water is now 75 yds. away. Flemings. Everything scattered with innumerable quantities of rusty tin sheets, broken bottles, boxes, old auto tires (such as size 600x20), wagon wheels, etc. Windy. Considerable droppings on front porch and in attic. Strung 2 bat nets at 9 p.m., windy. Temp at 9:30 (dusk) 11°C. Watched nets until 11:45. One bat approached nets many times but seemed to detect them (they were billowing wildly in the wind). Wind gusts came from 10 to at least 12, and strong at least until 1:30 a.m. Temp. at 1 a.m. 7°, at 3:00 a.m. 4°, at dawn 3°. At 1 p.m. nets held 3♀ Histrio, at 1:30 another one♂, at 3:00 another ♀ plus one that was just hanging from the net by its hind feet. Nov. 7, morning clear, but wind built up before 7:30 and then more galecast. Three caught between 1:30 and 3:00 was filled immediately and had stomach ½ full.

Processed lots in AM, caught 3 lizards under tin much worse than air. Then drove 5 km next to Estora Meneco where 3 men all agreed no lots in the region! Then drove back to the forks (Hotel La Horqueta) where assorted people agreed there were lots in 2 or more of the three houses. Put up a net at the lizards were and another at the hotel, a small green garden next to the hotel has flowers in bloom full grown Swiss chard, onions, seeding carrots, rhubarb, currants. Wind gradually died down at 7-8 pm, at 9:15 pm 3/4 cloudy, temp 12°c. at 11pm 9½°, not windy; at 3:15 am

Bats emerged from the high eaves of the south side of the gendarmerie house at dusk (± 9:45) and 3 or 4 promptly got caught in the net there. A few more before midnight, and two along about 5:15. Only one saw the hotel, and it early in evening. Total catch 388 and 794. The gendarme house with the complex roof seems to be a nursery colony; the lab side house 2 1/2 km west is a single roost or possibly the attic an alternative nursery roost. When released into the attic, 3 disappeared back into the dark, but two scrambled along rafters + beams quite actively, looking like vampires; certainly more mobile than Plecostes. The galvanized roof was warm to the touch, everything else cold, sky overcast. This was 10:30 a.m. Drove to El Calafate. Saw skas + guosecas. First 7 hours saw 2 vehicles, one of which passed in our direction while we were stopped looking for a gas deal. One more in last hour before El Calafate. No trees. Not windy x Evening in El Calafate cool, no wind, several Day 2 drive included 2 ferry boat rides in old USTs (power) inferiour to say no lote - by cable, current, and tractors on both sides of river.

Nov. 9 Stayed overnight in motel in El Colafato, morning overcast to no wind, at 10 a.m. drove out to the morano glacier (Ventisquero) (= colafate) averast but no wind. Yellow herberiz[illegible] in full bloom, plus a shrub-tree with bright red tubular flowers (=cinalillo), Zonotrichia singing. Camped 3 pm in a campground 52 km WSW El Colafato on the (N. latu[illegible]) edge of Brazo Rico, a mixture of beach trees, barbera scrub, and the red-flowered brush. I set about 40 traps, mostly in shrubby places with lots of duff, small nettle-sword fern, mosey stream. Also set 36 traps along lake and in scrubby spots around camp. A few sparrows. Many of the beach trees have lots of golf-ball-fungus, the ground often littered with fresh or dried ones. Visited the glacier at Ventisquero. Lots of action with numerous icebergs breaking off. The glacier has overlaid an area of the lake (Brazo Rico), and its level is presumably rising and will eventually break through the ice barrier some day. It has risen 10 ft. or more in the past because large dead trees are standing in the water and somewhat above its present level. Evening overcast, no wind, but set 1 hot net in our camp clearing (beeches and colafato bushes). 9:40 p.m., 9°; 10:15 still light enough to read notes, 11°C. Mar. 10 6°C at 4:45 a.m.; 2/3 clear, no wind. At 6:20 clear, no wind, 6°C. Cloudy by 7:00, clear by 10:30 but clear windy, nothing in hot net. My traps had 1 short-tailed long-clawed notomys at edge of little stream, 2 large Gryzor[illegible] in thick wet vegetation, and 2 red- baked skadon (longipilis?) in thick wet vegetation. None of many traps along rotting logs in deep duff under beach trees was touched, Anita caught 2 red-backed skadon under ledge near dog joints at edge of lake, and an skadon fourth? under scrubby at edge of camp?

Lots of Zonotrichia singing. Have very abundant, about (line here) per hour between the park gate and Vientiquero. Drove to the Estancia Chico, no bats they say, then to Estancia Alto Vista, no bats, they say, but by then too late to look elsewhere. Put out about 60 traps total through lush green grass, sheep-grazed sagebrush, and along a huge woodpile. Also one bat set. Then dinner with the Estancieros ad mifio (Sr. Alejandro Sifilicie). Evening clear, breeze, Temp 6o at 11p.m. nov. 11 Morning calm, drizzle, 6°, no bats. One Abderot tanus and 1 immature Rithrodon (in lush green grass 1/2 ft. tall). Then rain. Stuck in middle of road between Estancia Chico y Colofeto. after about 2 1/2 hrs the light rain had worked enough mud out of the rut so that stones + gravel were uncovered, which allowed me to escape. Checked into hotel in Colofeto, then went to see the local chef's collection of Indian artifacts, guns, matches, + coins. Then to the Park Heights where we were put in touch with a park ranger with 20 yrs experience. He seemed thoughtful, careful, precise with data - a good informant. Says there are bats in the forest under the bark of trees and in hollow trees, winter and summer. Doesn't know of them in houses. They are torpid when caught. No other bat beds in town, saw no bats at dusk at 10p.m., Temp. not cold. nov. 12 Drove out to the park entrance in the morning and hunted for bats for about 2 hrs in good Votofogus forest above the road. Lots of over-mature trees with hollows, loose bark, etc. no bats.

Afterwards, talked with a modeste man who lives just east of the park gate. He knew lots, showed me on his walk into the kind of place they stay, said they were good winter and summer, it but sometimes they were only partly alive, "like a tortuga". Talked with the owner and the foreman of Pedro Buenos Aires. They both said no lots of Eo Estieras. The foreman said he had cut road there for 4 yrs and never found a lot. Drove to Pedro Buenos east of Calafate. Lots of good creatures, holes etc. Found barn or great-barn owl pellets. Then drove till dusk on the road toward Santa Cruz. Crossed in quite open short-grass with only a few small shrub thickets. Saw total of about 30 trofos. Night calm, overcast. Battery gate. Nov. 13 Morning overcast, 14°. Night was clear, but dark flow down about 6 a.m. Drove all day to Santa Cruz then with our Route 3 to beyond Fitzroy. Saw a few rheas and guanacos, twins < 1 week old. Country very open, mostly flat, no trees. Lots of sheep. Mostly clear. At 9:50 clear, still windy, 16° More comments on the emptiness of Patagonia: From Calafate to Pedro Buenos to Fitzroy, about 15 hrs of driving on good road (total 673 km) we saw one guanaco driving a troop of forese (9:30 a.m.) and one group of 5 doing something with a grove of a hundred or so sheep (4:30 p.m.). In Pedro Buenos, of course, where we had a tire repaired, we saw people, and there were a convoy of 20+ oil exploration trucks on the Calafate-Pedro Buenos road and other trucks on route 3, but after that those monitored nobody was outside

outdoors doing anything, It was a Saturday, mostly sunny, and windy. The station master at Fitzroy said no lots in Fitzroy but yes in the station at Berito Moreno. Nov. 14 About 40 trofe in thornbush-grass-yards it caught nothing. Evening was breezy but night calm; Temp at 6 a.m. was 7° . A tanager nest with about 15 apple-green large eggs, the bird seems to make a gentle early-morning call note "bow-wow?". Day mostly sunny and only moderate wind, Drove north on route 3 almost to Condors-hum-duns, then west to Sarp Musters and camped at Nueva Subecka. Various stops revealed no lots and no knowledge of them, at Estancia Santa Rita they said no lots there but lots in the bell tower of a church in Navarro, They don't like having European horses. Saw clutch of goslings of the common Chlorofoega; then with half-grown young. The RR between Comodoro & Sarmiento seems to be abandoned. Set about 25 trofe in thorn-bunch-grass-thorn mat scrubby desert, and 2 lot nets: 1 at the Post office and the other at an abandoned house 100m away. Nueva Subecka consists of a substantial stone post office, 1 abandoned house, a shed containing modestly shelveslairs and 2 live chickens, litter, no people, pepper trees, and a few alamos, aphid-infested. Saw no lots flying, no signs. Evening clear & calm. 10° at 10 p.m., Nueva Subecka is 60km S of post de San Martin (which is near a previous collecting locality Gobernador Costa). Nov. 15 Morning calm, averaged 4° at sunrise. No lots. Trofe held 4 Eligmolortus and 1 abedon fauntha. Caught in amid sage brush bush.

"The people in that area have projects to restore nature and I never think to mention it as an example. "Across the steps - one of Anderson's first tasks was to "defeat", reduce, reign, and appease the problem of pollution in T. Again and repeatedly he tried other things without success.

grass. No bats. Pulled up shrike from 3 skinned fer carriers, Discarded 2 & Elymodontata : tests 6, SVR; tests 7 SV 7. 4 km N of town Drove to Muster and visited at Estonia Muster (Sr. Horitz). The family old rural house had predation etc but they had no evidence of bats in it. They had occasionally found bats in a hawthorn tree closing the house, and at least one had found dead bats under the tree after a freeze (at least 2 or 3 bats). Mrs Horitz used to live at Estonia Jalque, said there were bats in the attic there, and that she used to see bats hanging in the current lumber than when she was picking currants in summer. We set all traps (+ 70) in three habitats: wet green-grass + juniper + dandelion along the road to town; drier grass, brush-grass weeds along the railroad tracks across the road from the ranch; and bushy-pars - sagebrush a few hundred meters east of the RR. The sagebrush one waist-high or more, dense, with pole tallular blossoms. Then drove back to the old mill 2 km N of town and camped there and put up 2 bat nets. Ante also put out a few traps in their grass - dandelion - orchard. Evening calm, 3/7 overcast, 9°C at 9:20. Saw 1 bat flying near our nets at about 10 p.m. Nov. 16 Morning calm, 1/2 overcast, 6°C at 6 a.m. No bats in net. Traps in lush grass along road caught only red-looked Abodon (plus one small Elymodontata in a dry culvert under the road). The dry field caught 1 Reuthodon + more red-looked Abodon, the sagebrush area produced 2 Abodon femina, and the lush orchard caught red- looked Abodon. In addition to those prepared, discarded 6 red - lookd Abodon, one obtain a jaw. Met Sr. Brasse, owner of the old mill, and his administrator and the latter's wife. The administrator used to live at Estonia

For Cabral (east of Delaque) and saw the old Estancia headquarters there is being preserved as of historic interest and is fully intact. After lunch drove to Estancia Pologno and met Charlie and Nora Mackinnon. He is the man in charge of all the Estancias of a former discussed English company, now Argentine. The Estancias include Alta Cura, Piloquinjen, Matien, and Delaque. In addition to numerous out- buildings, Pologno has a brick main house with galvanized red roof over shingles, an attic, and [illegible] in the attic. The house is surrounded by rows and rows of peppers, vegetable & flower gardens, Hawthorne trees, Cypress tree, and green lawns. A trap door near the kitchen lets into the attic which is literally sprinkled with bat droppings, and was quite warm. One mother + young were hanging in the open, others in cracks, especially between the double ridge pole and tin roof. The bats were active and scurried like mice along the ridge pole etc. We [illegible] caught some with long forceps, then stretched two nets outside the latter along a veranda where the residents reported seeing them fly frequently. They report that bats are in the attic winter and summer, that in winter they hang near the under the kitchen stove/pipes goes through the attic. They say winter temperatures go down to -16°C, snow up to a foot deep. Spring and even summer frosts are common. Apple bear only about once ever 7 years because of untimely frosts. Sidews rarely bloom for some reason. In the vegetable garden were strawberries (blooming), lettuce, Swiss chard, cabbage, carrot, peas, rhubarb, endive, currants, gooseberries, onions. [illegible] blooming, [illegible] - [illegible] finished. Evening calm & clear. Temp: 10 p.m. 9°C. Caught several bats about 10 p.m. including 1 mole [illegible] more in middle of night

including two wild temp. mor 3° colm den. Nov, 17 Dawn colm clear, temp 0°c, Estoria minunthermom -2°. no more bats in net after middle of night [watch hod stopped]. All 8 adult bats from attic were females, from non-preg through almost-volant young. Three males called out side, Tagged 6 females and released them. Two landed in tree, the other dropped/promptly under eaves on both sides of the gable at end end of house. One scurried into the bird well to get in. Processed 15 others including a discarded juvenile Histotus, 70x25x9x16 forwom 29 6.3g. naked. I think we handled at least half of the entire colony. All except one survived something holding overnight in the bat net down to 0°c and were warm enough to fly early in the morning. Drove to El Bolsón and stopped at Sr. Kovac's house. He and his topidermist son were in Buenos Aires, but another son drove me to the farm of another son, a farmer, at Hoyo de [illegible] Efkuyen 12 km south of El Bolsón. He took me to two possible bat farms, but we ended up at a third in Hoyo, an old barn with almsut droppings and good reports from the owner. Droppings fairly large, didn't smell like Tadaris. Temp at dusk (9:20) 12°c, clear, mosquitoes for a short time. Nov. 18 Dawn partly overcast, calm, 7°c. No bats seen during careful watch, and none caught in net. At one of the barns visited yesterday, Kovac had removed a big cluster of bats [like a swarm of bees] a year or more ago. This was 4 km S of the Hoyo's Kovac's quinta. Leonista lorkshur in bloom, apple trees with marble-sized apples. Frosts seem to be a problem, but not as severe as at Folegus. Note that the altitude here is only about 400ft. Saw eucalyptus trees as tall and straight as at [illegible]. Yesterday there was only a few wild roses in bloom, but today lots of them. After breakfast chaked out the "old mill" on the Bracada

Property. It is only a few hundred yards from our site of last night. We were told by the owner (? or son?) that it had no bats and was dangerous to enter because it was falling down. Went back to the farm where Kovacs took us yesterday and where we did not see or heard bats but were told Kovacs collected a "swarm" of them last year. Today at 10 am, we could hear them squawling and could see a few scurrying between the wooden roof and the corrugated iron. Collected one with long forceps - a pregnant ? mystic?, very dark. The daughter reported that several were hanging on & came out in to the open at 7 pm, last night shortly after we had breakfast. This farm is about 4 km S of the Hoyo de Espuyen and has the huge tall fine grained eucalyptus at the gate, east side of road. Visited Jorge Pinedo in afternoon. Huge number of wild roses are needing this whole away; no dove seen, although people say they are present. Not squawled on roof as they are elsewhere. at 7 pm Returned to the Eucalyptus barn (granero of Antonio ? and Flora Albion de Mayorga), which is about 4 km S of the Comisera of El Hoyo (no longer being called Hoyo de Espuyen) or 1/2 km N of the El Hoyo school. They have a 6-foot diameter sequoia gigante planted about 1917 and a quingho. Mystics were awake and in a cluster on a beam near the ridge. Collected about 20 of them, maybe half, all females. Strung 2 nets outside the barn hoping for males. Evening cloudy, some wind in trees but not at ground level, temp at 9:20 14°. Bats emerged from west end of barn and flew higher than nets. Auto set traps in barn. Daughter beating a spot informed says bats are present winter & summer. The fact that they use the granero for storing apples indicates that the temp does not drop very low. granero = barn.

Ransom 1976 Nov. 19 morning calm, temp. at 5:45 12 1/2 o Bats were exiting at west end of barn and entering under the eaves. More insects. Obtained, then gave a little bat demonstration at the local grade school where Mrs. Mayorga is vice principal. Then to El Bolson to meet Kovic's son but he didn't show. More shining. At lunch met the head of the tourist information bureau who gave us location of two potential bat houses, one about 3 km N of town (Sra. Azcona), a wonderful old water-wheel mill amidst hop fields (no bats), the other an abandoned house south of town about 4 km owned by an Alfredo Barco. It had lots of droppings (Histobius?) in the attic, but no bats. Both the tourist information man and Sr. Mayorga agree that the flowering of Colihue bonito is followed by outbreaks of

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.

1700 ft., Verquén. Day sunny and warm. Evening warm and calm and clear. String 2 hot rats sent to house. Morelli says he has seen as many as 3 Rhea incubating over nest of eggs simultaneously; recently saw an adult rhea with 40? young. Sayp lots are here all year. Also has lots in a small house across the Cholon Curá bridge, at Corral de Piedra and in the Escuelita at Paso de Flores. Sayp social system of guanacos is same as that described by Kopid for vicuñas; bands of 6 cockers under numbering hundreds. He also says spider as big as dinner plate in Verquén. Many lots (looks like myoptes) flying at dusk: above, below, and around one of the rats. At 10:15 one lot flying inside the house, secured. At 11:15 6 lots flying inside the house, caught all of them (non- breeding 2 & 4 myoptes). At 3 a.m. nothing more, At 8 p.m. set about 30 traps in decent chest-high thornbrush, rabbit brush (a yellow composte) and scattered grass. Avites set about 40 in various habitats including moist area with pampea grass clumps. Nov. 22 Morning clear, calm, 5½° C. Nothing in nets. Very traps held Kuthredon, Elipudonta, and Abodon pantos. Avites caught Kuthredon, Abodon, and either a jay or Elipino or an Calomys. Also I got 2 turcos in 2 traps set last evening. Skinned all morning—sunny & warm. Discovered 2 Ruthredon, 3 Elipino, and 1 Abodon (ext.). Heard Calib. quail. Drove to Corral de Piedra, which is slightly downstream and up on the hills from the Río Cholon Curá. Turn right at the bridge, then right about a ½ km along the paved road into a dirt track, then a couple of km farther. It is a rather forlorn outpost with a ranchhouse, some workers quarters, a beautifully made big shearing barn, and two 40 ft.-diam water tanks.

3'-ft. deep and full to the brim. Bats squealing at 8:30pm in the creek in the beds of the big slaying barn, dripping underneath. Poplars etc around the house, but little nother and sage brush of several species. Put a net inside the big barn and another over one of the water tanks. Saw Colf. guiland copetora tinamoor 20 yds. apart. Evening somewhat windy but warm. Lots of myotis drinking at the tank without the net. A few at the tank with net, but avoided it. at 10:30 there were 4 g myotis in the barn net, none flying there, morning calm, 1/2 overcast, warm. Bats returned to barn between no more 4 and 5:30 a.m., but none caught in net. Saw the water tanks not at 6:00 were 1 myotis g ad 1 Tadarida ?. Returned to river bridge to skin, then drove to La Rinconada and the James Wood eucalyptus farm W of La Rinconada. It is a lush oasis of flowers, trees of all sorts including eucalyptus, sequoia gigantea, cedar, ash, junipers, cypress, poplar, alamo, apples, cherry etc etc. Colf. / puffy. Artemium water. Hummingbirds in winter but not in summer, unless they are found in summer in jurisdio for aides. They consider Gasconne common in summer in the dense juniper trees and current bushes. Looked in various buildings for bats. Found one group in the ceiling of the tech room, but no way to get to them. Left about 4 and drove to Estancia chacalero where we met Peter Brewing family Symington, the administrator (French sportmen owners). He said lots of bats in the attic of his house. We promptly had a look and caught 7 in corners of beams - all male myotis and one f Tadarida. Attic was quite warm. Lots of droppings, plus a nasty accumulation with brick chimney where it passes through to attic. Could hear squeaking of other unreachables. They have made numerous attempts at eradication with spray cans of Dieldrin, burning

sulfur etc. At dusk a half-dozen were flying round-and-round in a sudden subsection of the attic, caught 3 of them with sweep-net, one a female. At about 10, a dozen or more were flying in same area, and I caught about 10 of them, including females, all mnytas, great range of coloration. Lot of no- ets. Night calm & clear, not cold. Nov. 24 morning calm, somewhat overcast, temp at 6:15 1/2 C. At 8 am all quiet inside, caught 1 more mnytes in a crack. This house will be flooded upon completion of the Alicia dam in maybe 5 years. Peter Dympson has only seen one Jasmines (in a rose-bush) in many years again here, in spite of lots of lilies, junipers, poplars, and other flowers + planting. He is an excellent bird taxidermist and a good observer. Harrows pigeon owls (and one was calling while we were there). One of the trend owners is a falconer and captures hawks of various sorts at the Estancia, as well as shooting coyotes in the bosque in the higher parts of the hacienda (109,000 hectares). Coyotes kill numerous lambs, and Dympson shoots them when they get into the stud lamb-pen. About 1 per week per winter. He had stuffed a barn owl holding a short-tailed mnytes (?) that had been captured "up high near the snow"; he and his wife both agree that the hawks are present in the winter, probably near the churning. Annual rainfall something like 500mm, but this year very dry, about 250mm. This place is on the Rio Limay between Confluencia and the bridge over the Rio Collon Cura. Mostly sage-brush habitat, hair-grass - rich bunchgrass and cliffs, and willows. Drove to Bariloche and checked into Selva Negra campground about 2km W of town. One bat (mnytes?) seen at dusk.

Note that mystis arrived after about 3/4 hr. of flying time, during drizzle, with fairly full stomach and dry fur. In fact, none had wet fur when removed from the nets. All 42, 9 mystis ad 1 Histotus. The wild rose here, unlike in Bolson, are not flowering yet. Compare stage of gestation of mystis. Put up one of its darker specimens. Drove to the Mirihan RR Station east of Baribelo, good attic but no lots. Then drove to Estancia Sonja on the highway at the Arfitectura and talked with Sra Dolly Frag; no lots. Then returned to Estancia Carrol do Piedras and put 2 nets over the water tanks. Evening clear, clear. Only a few bats flying at dusk. Caught two (mystis) before 10 p.m.

Three or more species of sage brush up to shoulder high, low green grass, and bare sandy gravel. Drove to Paso de Flores, a ferry-boat over the Rio Duiuy, and found bats under the corrugated roof of the school house. Two caught and one caught 3; one of which, a prog of older species. Put up the poles of the remaining two; it was only slightly piler. The Alcura, Corral de Piedra, and Paso de Flores localities are in different Provinces but only a few miles apart. Some good cliffs and caves near Paso de Flores. Spent night in the staving shed of Estancia Alicura, with two nets in the shed, staving ended earlier this week. Shed (= barn) smelled of disinfectant. Saw no bats or signs nov.29 Temp at dawn 1/2 deg. No bats in nets. Drove to Barlobo, checked with Mrs. Humbol, then off to Carro Tronador with Carlos and Adriana.

Reason 1976 caught 1 Abdomen longi, Carlos caught 1 Abdomen otter sp. In the Bosque Bajo burned in 1957 (3000 ft) I had 8 traps and caught 4 Abdomen longifilis. Anita used 12 Shermanes and caught 7 mice (Abdomen + Gryz) In Bosque Zoledra - found 10 traps (nothing caught), Anita had 15 rod traps, caught 3 Abdomen Longifilis. 2600 ft. The totals including Carlos: Bosque Bajo, Causa 6 - 4 A. longifilis, 1 A. sp., 1 Gryzonymy? Bosque Bajo, burned 1957 - 7 A. longifilis, 4 Gryzonymys Bosque Zoledra - 3 A. longifilis. Drove into about 2:30, then drove back to Barilocho. Stayed at Humbolt home, Dec. 2 Discussion in a room with Aldo Brodani, his wife Maria Aleina?, and Jorge Amaya who have been working on hare and rabbits for INTA. At 6 drove to Estancia El Cordor with the humboldt (south, then east of airport). Sharing time, manger is toward Antuco's Chile closely. In the attic of their house found one cluster of the giant Hystotus (maestue?) at the peak where 2 rafters meet the ridgepole, about 3 of them available by hand, and 2 or 3 more with forceps. Probably missed one of them. In a side attic Anita found a cluster hanging in the open, about a dozen, one of them Hystotus montanus and the other maestue?. Caught all. They were not quite wild animals. This was about 8 p.m. almost all with newborn young, 12/2/99, a few not preg. Then looked for red bats in conifers, montanas etc, but found none.
