Notomys caldwellii
Nov.2, Cerro Otto, 1200m, Rio Negro, caught 3 in 70 Sherman in the longu - amazonay forest, one of them in a small Sherman at a bamboo clump. The lines look very pregnant. It refused armadillidium but ate earthworms, slugs, and long cooing meat larvae. At first refused a Notomys macrourus and a dead also large with the brain exposed, but later it ate an enormous quantity of muscle off of a macrurus carcass. Within 18 hrs it had eaten all of its specific intestine, leaving just a pickled - bone skeleton.
