Pleasan 1982 67 nov. 6. left about 11 for Fox Bayas to trap in talus, weather cold, scattered scrubble and a little snow. camped at the north edge of the mesa near the road overlooking Fox Bayas. Not a whole lot of good talus. The vegetation on the mesa is clove bush, mesquite, 2. However, some cumbgrass. Heavily grazed. Spent traps in the tumbled rock below the rimrock. Scattered berberis and Bouteloua. Got off vicarula droppings. Saw 1 vicarula ad 1/2 chi armadillo, most interesting place was a large wood-rot nest of sticks -- maybe a big eagle nail fallen from cliff above. Set 4 steel traps, about 15 cage traps, 10 MS, and 30 big Sherman. Also set about 12 MS in bunchgrass on a raised sandy mound on the mesa. Anita put traps near camp in steep vegetation, along the talus, and 3 steel traps at a big berberis clump. She caught 1 Phyllosticta davewiki long before dark. Weather cold, mostly cloudy, light wind. Thunder & almost calm after sunset. nov. 7. night clear, considerable frost, water jug not frozen, morning sunny, light breeze. The 12 MS in bunchgrass on sandy platform = 1 Elips ad 1 Aborhontle. The traps below cliff = 3 Phyllosticta davewiki and 3 abedon longi. Several vicarulas seen running. Set traps. Two of the three longi were in especially brushy place (leg

Berberia, Servio, etc., Acute traps in Joffo (Cds de Piedi, Servio, Bulgres, and a few small Berberia clumps) caught 1 pantlo and 2 slipors (50 traps); in the rocks on the edge of the cliff he caught 3 more darwinis (40 traps). 3 pintb traps in a big clump of Berberia were not troubled, although a burrow and runways, + Rathodon droppings. Big black beetle lumbe- ing around in the sun at 10 A.M., air still cold. Saw one grusoso, 15 km S Vilecaniyeu near the summit of randul reales; no rheas. Heard tinamou and saw tracks of camels. No teros anywhere. Our trapping site of last May 5 km E of Bereto Mororo is now behind jesse, no go. Returned to Barilocho 1 P.M. Sunny, saw no Rheas; no turos droppings en route. Dick Sago trapping at Puerto Bleit for 2 nights (Nov. 3 and 4) caught 26 Alcedon longifilis and 1 Dryps, (and 2 Rhinoderma) in the swamps on the way to El Arundo). Nov. 9 Left 10:30 for Vilecaniyeu (MTA). 4 black-necked cranes on the lake of Bereto Mororo (as there were a few days ago), but out the grid traps 12:30 to 2:30 (3 traps short). Vegetation in the grid seemed short the same; Saponium blooming. Theridion saw 2 toads on the grid, and several lizards. Then drove to the Notomys locality 10 km W Cañada and set for Notomys in two burrows. Acute and small shrews hunted with pate and mixed with rolled oats. I set unsorted pantb traps and

Pearson 1982 69 Museum specials caught under Palo, all in two burrows, almost all under Salsipuea brush. Sets of Salsipuea twigs cut by tucos, then resprouting from below the cut. Some lesser Salsipuea bushes have real leaves, others just the twisted gray-green twigs. Sets of big black beetles lumbering around. Then drove to Cordón Bonete and camped near where the track up to the Epeloserre brook off from the dirt lane. Sets of Salsipuea here and tucos signs. One big Salsipuea on its own mound of earth had several twigs cut larger than pencils, and one of them was cut more than 12 inches above the ground; the tucos must have climbed up into the branches. Weather mixed sun, clouds, occasional hail, windy until sunset. Temp. at 8pm 34°F. Mar. 10 Night mostly clear, fierce wind came up in middle of the night, minimum -4°C. Morning clear, cold breeze. The net traps trap lines had 1 also pantlho, around camp 1 tucos. Grid network kept 1 also pantho at I7; topes #99 but forgot to weigh, I set it x Checked grid in afternoon - nothing. Then put out more snag traps under Salsipuea at the 10km WSW Comallo hazelly. During the day caught 1 tucos and 1 also pantlho there. Also put out some more traps in Salsipuea around camp. Day was scattered sun, cold, and windy windy all day. Temp at noon 45°, at 2:30 50°, at 7pm 45°,

Pearson 1982 70 mar.11. Carson Bonte, lightly mostly clear, wind stopped about daybreak. Temp at 7a.m - 2°. morning clear, cold breeze. Trees around camp caught 2 Elipogentia. small live caught 1 very small also tautbo x Bird caught 1 also tautebo & #98 at G11, 17q. Daring until about 2pm. Temp. up to 58°. numerous lizards and big black beetles about, and hundreds of fuzzy caterpillars, medium size, rusty brown fur and black bodies, darker at head and rear ends. They crawl slowly across the ground and lots of them up in the Saffron bushes. Most of the Saffron bushes here (Carson Bonte) are half dead, but the caterpillars are mostly on the live twigs. Saw only one in a newer bush ad more in Severino. Can't tell whether they are eating the Saffron twigs x They curl up when disturbed. Some of the Saffron limbs are blooming, others not at all. Correction: the fuzzy caterpillars do eat the green bark on the twigs of Saffron. Hundreds around our campsite at Carson Bonte but we saw only one while checking the girl at Campo Anchores at 3:30 pm, and more of them was a couple, not at another place a few farther east which had the lushest Saffron ever, many bushes loaded with them. There were no at all. The blooming leafy plants especially ooze a & white sap when the twig is broken. Omelo grid saw a few lizards, a dove,

and recaptured alcedon #98 at G10. The afternoon run of traps at 10am WSW Cornell caught 3 alce dartlos, one trap into had been freshly scented by a jpt: Toads the skull of a freshly skinned jpt crease on a fence post a couple of km W of the restcamp traps. When we were poking around a km or 2 east of the restcamp into, in very sandy, leechy Sofrin, Anna dug out a small hole from which a mouse excaped and left behind 5 whisked young in a nest. They were pigmented, already had tails as long as mother's; probably Elyopentora. Gather them in sand under dead leaves. The afternoon trap check at Canada Bonto produced a couple of lizards and a couple of alce spattlos. Early afternoon cloudy, in 50s, breeze, then cleared up, 42° at sunset, little wind, no caterpillars to be seen at that time x no. 12 Canada Bonto. Night calm, clear, and cold, min, 19°F. Morning sunny, calm. Traps in Sofrin etc. around camp caught 1 tucu, 1 alce tartulo, and 1 lizard. Didn't hear a single tucu call of this camp during 3 days x Traps at 10am WSW Cornell caught 3 alce dartlos, no caterpillars there. Picked up the girl traps at 10:30.

the grid, Re, Sophium: at places where trees have cut twigs, new buds develop and the shoots that develop there [illegible] have leaves. This morning at 9:00, sunny with temp in low 40s, the caterpillars had appeared again on the Sophium. Many of them were on dead twigs. Perhaps they fell off or climbed down to the base every night, then make their way up again each morning, having to decide at each bifurcation whether the tip is going to be green or dead. Those making the wrong decision might spend all day finding green food. Hence, should be higher, found on dead twigs in morning, and conversely, a really big bush might serve worse because it would take the caterpillars so long to reach the peripheral twigs. Rocked Bamboo 1:30 p.m., Sunny, not windy. On this excursion to the staffs, 3 nights of trafficking and 800+ trap nights (including the grid) produced only 3 Elgrendanta and about 12 [illegible] also tenther, no doubt some penalty from using lots on many traps and fewer underground sets for Notonomy, but diversely not many mice around. Hare were seen hunting several times, but probably for lizards. No chivaro's seen either at Cardon Bonta or Carper duto or 10km WSW Csondo. Blooming whistles heard every night, even in high wind. Rabbit pellets inside of double epidermis of Cardon Bonta, amica. half dozen traps that caught nothing

summary of grid: caught 2 also pantita and 1 q pierg. Elegua in 3 nights. 1 also fantita was accepted over #98 at G 11 and G 10 = 10m, nov. 14 clear calm morning in Barlocho. Went up to Catedral on the shri goulda of Poma. People still snowing up top, snow taken back with no or a minimum of vegetation, but in a few places with soil, and trail from the Catedral, new holes in the ground, but we saw no droppings. From the spoola could look down on top of the little goulda and could see the ground littered with old dead grey canes of laurel. Could they have been lying there for 40 years? Also, you could look down through [illegible] large leafless leaya words and see the snow all melted for a foot or more seriously each trunk. I don't remember seeing this pattern in Eastern hardwood forests. Schedule of lift: 9-12; 14-17. nov. 20 Sunny + warm, set windy. Left Barlocho 10:30AM. 2 dead hares between Manuel Hofsí and Confucius. Poffee in leaf, never out yet. The man at the gas/pet pump in Confucius says it will be 2 years until they fill the Oleara reservoir. Then draw to Colón Curá for fuel levels, then towards So Ruescoy. Stopped about 2 km short of the bridge at So Ruescoy, at a place where there is a magnificent boulder slide plus a

this stone wall that goes straight up the hill. at 3 pm put traps in this boulder slide ad along the wall, saw no mouse sign in the boulders but lots of feathers droppings along the wall, plus a few very old small hystricognathus droppings, a mixture of dead, kopek, Sherman, and MS traps. Acuta (cut) traps near the road. Then drove back to Color Cera. On the way, a turtle was stuffed along the road at the edge of a marshy area. Two men were trying to stuff a meter-long snake into a news follo without touching the (dead) snake. We stopped to admire the snake, the bogged us close seen, and they gave it to me. They said it was stealing avutarda eggs - but it had none made. The men had two very large eggs that they said were fresh avutarda. Came off at Color Cera under the willows, walking here but the ruins of a house, a road to the with (locked gate), and the ruins of a cable crosses the big river - obviously used to be a ferry. Put out traps in sacody-bushy tobit near comfort around the abandoned house (walls). Lots of feathers droppings and mouse tracks in the sand. Leaf cutter ants was not actual at sunny

the store wall) (Orzy), 4 Phyllotba, and 1 also longi. Then drove down the valley and stopped 2 km west of the bridge to pick up rafton/pallets. Horn 1/Jan. Summary: There was considerable diversity even without getting the 2 species of genus/rigs that Berlin got in 9202. The gorge on Boulder side and store wall were a disappointment. The next site on the last night were controlled, The two Zestodolphin is expecting to get; also in the oval/pallets from down the valley were both Mormora and Zestodolphis. Berlin did not get Calomaya here, no sign of Calomaya/Actedortomaya x See next page for note presence of red-cultured at Caldera cave, these oval/pallets x Calomaya + Marmora + genus/rigs. Coler Cave was probably a ferry across the river where Berlin was here. I am surprised that we don't see genus rigs somewhere along the road here. Nov 24 Barlecks. Beautiful cloudless weather. Drove to Go Veranda and labed at our grid, looked about same, tree seemed bigger, no sign of bamboo bloom, had lunch in the large forest nearby. The bamboo looks a bit dry. Then drove back the dirt road towards the Rio Village; it takes off about a mile north of the Violated National Helicon, many kms of dense dense fire and bamboo scrub, not unlike our grid, barely the result of a fire years ago. Saw a fence post in the middle of it, which fulfills Rogel's statement that this country used to have

more people in it, never got to the river; busy road. Then drove to the east side of Gogo Medellino to fish; stopped at El Delta where we camped and trapped ones (good campsites). In a fireplace under its limbs of a tree, Anita found one owl pellet containing one mouse - and brownies! At La Veranda I walked about a mile along a deeply little-used road in quite mild scrub/cactus scrub looking for Tocha; saw dog and fofa, no Pedro or cat or pig. Two skippings anywhere the scrub opened up a little. Nov. 28 Hilda Rumboll says there are leaf-cutter ants at the Wood's estancia near La Vinacua (between the Aleminos (= Colom Curu) and El Chimenduin), and Dick Sago, who just returned from Brasoloula, says there are leaf-cutter ants at the bridge over the Calanfu near the motadros on Est. Abreu. He caught there a Bufo arenarum, which is a southern limit; add this to the southern limit of Manmara, 2 spp. of guinea pig and Calonmyx. Day cool & windy. Went to Cano Geceroz and collected pellets. Maybe 2 qte. of fresh pellets, 1 cast furry pellets. Also found a few more marshland fauna among the loose branches; Zestadplus and either manura or Drimigfe. Note: no Tocha in the current pellets!!

Nov. 29 Sunny, not windy. In the afternoon went with Anta and Paula Sago up to Refugio Navarreyes and then up to the summit above the Refugio. The larger leaves were out, the average height up maybe 6 inches. The snow was slightly less than during our visit a year ago (which was 2 weeks earlier in the season). Almost no clou-clous whereas last year lots of steel traps at three-to-four places all tops, and Anta set some soft traps in a meadow of trap. Looked them up about 1 ½ hrs later, nothing. Most impressive was the quantity of earth cores left by the snow melt, presumably from Chelamys; in some places above the Refugio the ground was quite riddled if the 2 ¼" cores did not begin to flatten out, they would have covered about 1/3 the total surface of the ground. Most striking is the observation that there's no Amaray (and hardly any other herbs) in the affected areas. Since Chelamys in captivity eat the succulent stems of Amaray, it is possible that Chelamys spends the winter burrowing for Amaray roots. Anta found a dead snake along the trail, and in a fresh foot? droppings was a 1 ½ inch hairy, bi-cornual tail that looks like the tail of Abrasoma ceneris or some similar hystricognath,

In some older droppings were Chelonyx, Phrynosoma, Agamidae, and Ctenops. Dec. 1 at 10:30 went with Anita & Dick Sage to Refugio messenger. Sunny, warm. Packed up the hill above the Refugio and along the two lakes to the Shaley or stray ridge with clumps of large asphodels next to some large forest. Snow had decreased somewhat from Nov. 29. The theory of Chelonyx eating out large patches of amaranth under the snow still looks OK. 2:30 started setting out traps by runway under dwarf sagebrush and at two burrows, also (set traps, cage traps, Sherman, and MS). Also set 12 MS in bunchgrass at cliff bottom to the west. Anita set in a grassy wet meadow, partly with wild biscuit, and Dick set two traps. Made camp in over-mature large forest with the wood-loved Barbarea (Percei) under-story. Small woodpecker and great redfieldia, heard what-what, no amaranth in this forest. Some amaranth on the way up the hill near just sprouting (edge recently melted snow). A few Barbarea in various places on the ridge. at 4pm traps held 1 big gopher (not hoigi), 1 Chelonyx, 1 defens, and 1 longifolia. At 8pm, 2 Chelonyx in some cage traps at same time. At dusk heard one quart of two calling; 4 trees in rapid succession followed by pause, then 4 more.

Enormous number of small brown Calidris (few beetles) flying at dusk. Full moon. This location now known as "ridge above Refugio Navarrete, 15 km S SW S C de Bamborbo", 1600m. This same locality last year we called 2000m, Rec. 2 Refugio Navarrete. Morning sunny + calm. Traps held more Charadrius, 1 Aukletropes, about 5 Charlongs, and 2 more Geotus. Rec. 3 Peulla, Chile: left Bariles at 10 AM and went via bus - foot - bus - foot - bus to Peulla and checked into the hotel at 4 PM. Sunny and stormy, beautiful views, especially Tramador from the Chilean immigration stop. I was very impressed with how fast the vegetation becomes "tropical" after entering Chile. Also hot + tobacco, met Peter Mercer of Hotel Peulla and put out traps. He put museum specs up a canyon behind the hotel and I put about 35 live traps up a side branch to a spectacular waterfall. Cochine and Lacunas, partly Conulesta and partly the big graceful quila. Forest Chilean, park guard says there are 3 species of lambar: Conulesta, quila, and the little one called or trenuo. My line was 10 cage traps, about 20 Shamonas, and 3 jump traps. Lunta put 20 MS in grassy blackberry + wildnut + older Sedge broom on edge of big meadow in front of hotel. Evening calm, clear. I also set clewakers in marsh before 7:30 PM.

Dec 4 Night clear & calm. Bautrops & 7:30 AM into Leder meswood Park. Sward Dago, Miller, my traps had 1 brownie (steel trap), 1 geeker varden, 5 also longi, and 4 also oliv. One of the longi quite dark, maybe sandorni. Peter with 30? M5 on his bank of the stream carpet 2 longi and 2 oliv. Anuta caught 4 oliv. Between 7:30 and noon, Anuta caught 2 more oliv, and I caught another oliv. Lapso 4 PM, Photos of a captive & Pedro and her 'few weeks' old' fawn. Surprisingly hard to find her in her 50' x 50' pen of tall green grass and trees about seventy decks. The fawn is spotted, freezes in the grass and allows itself to be stroked. At 3 PM drove up the valley road to the big bridge with Mesero & Anuta and Dagoferto Miller. Warm but some high clouds. Looked for good trapping sites but found none better than here. No sign of raccoons. Big ferns are tall now away but not flowering yet. Anuta put out some more traps along the stream. Miller says there are coipers here, and he caught an cottar last winter. Said he had not seen hots, but at dinner the brother told came in to our tell mill a Tadarida (about) that they had just caught. Have seen no hummingbirds here. They feed the Pedro Fuchsia traveler (among other things).

Dec. 5 Peulla. Morning overcast; began raining about 11:30 a.m. My traps had only 1 Gecina and 1 also oliv. Anita left the canyon in rain and along the stream caught 1 also longi and 1 also oliv. At the edge of the mallin she caught 3 also oliv (2 of them slug eater), and 1 mouse in a steel trap. Nice dark brown, wild-type pelt, caught by front foot. Released it. Peter resumes (about 65 museum specials up the canyon) caught 4 also oliv. Dagoberto Muller, the Parkward, says that 20 yrs ago the foot arch used to be right at the lake? (now a sedge marsh with iris). Then it was moved north, abandoned, and moved again to its present location all because of sedimentation from Trowder. He also says that there used to be carpers in the marsh but that now they are gone. Clears ups about 3 pm. Relented traps at 4 pm, using mouse grease in the coy traps and Anita put mouse grease in some of her Sherman's. A few feet from where the mouse was caught was a pile of mule-sized droppings containing almost entirely fragments of crustacean shell. Dec. 6 Morning clear, temp. 9°. My traps held 3 also longi. Nothing touched the mouse carcass left there. Peter caught 1 also longi and 1 also oliv., Anita caught 1 fadsting Rhyncholester in a quail/log trap in a m.s.

It was last night, 6 large muffs in a horse shoe pattern, but no embryos. Were not very large. Either left her young in the nest or they left her after she was caught. Went back later and looked for the young or nest but didn't find them. When we got back to the hotel at 8 am, they were all excited and said the bus was leaving at 8:30, a quick shock, then at 8:25 they said no, the bus would go as usual at mid-day. At mid-day, feed over full, packed etc., then word came through that there was a transportation strike in Argentina and that we would not be able to get home to Bariloche, so we checked back into the hotel and put out traps again; on the same trail; 6 young trofs, 10 coy trofs, and 20 she-maws. Found a mummified Tolarida behind a shutter at Visbi Roth's house. Then looked up in the attic of the hotel and found one place with droppings and maybe a dozen lots between the tarjafier and the shingle. They flew out at dusk - looked like Tolarida. Visbi Roth's father is Vernon Peterson of Santa Barbara, Cal. Dec. 7 Morning clear. Trofs held only 1 also large ad 1 also slim. Got Bariloche by bus at 8:45 a.m., arrived Puerto Blest 1 pm. Walked from Lago Frías to P.B.; counted blooming laurel between El Chudo and P.B.: 5. Some of them the whole clump was blooming; other part of a clump. Bad year's shoots seemed to them as well as old ones.

a clump near PB on the trail to Centrose, none of the flowering clumps had new shoots. The dead clump at the Corro in Puerto Belsit is still standing looking a bit worse for wear (see photo and photos of earlier years). El Ahualo is dated, on the sign, 1410. yellow Azara is in flower at PB, and Erica cuneiflora heard 3 groups of parrots (or parotas 3 times) between Friest PB. Jesus Roth, manager of Hotel Paula, was born at Paula about [illegible] yrs ago. He says there used to be 500 people in the valley, population now is 75. He did not know that mice are here. Says there were lots of coffee until about 15 yrs ago. The tabanids are much more abundant in summer. The roads are covered with helicoptera (drosophilae) in summer. He had a pickled large beetle that he said was the female of a species in which the males have long horns, and that there used to be thousands of them here. The guava bombus, he says, flowered about 35 years ago, and this was a ratada. He says he has seen Monte del monte toro (rare) ad viscocarbas. When the bell shop, Ramon, saw our collection of slime, he seemed to recognize Geotres, distinguished it from the others, and said it was abundant in the potato fields near his home near Paychue. There were few Araneas along the trail where our traps were at Paula. The only bombus there

was the forested Quila. Cane Coligue (Coulou) offered along the road at the river at Puerto Elgante, and gradually replaced the Quila above there. Big Derrera these a magnificent view of Cerro Tronador from the Chilean border stations at Casa Langua. Saw no flow-forest on the Chilean side, and only a few small trees at Puerto Blest. Dec 8 Went to Isla Victoria on the tourist boat, thence to Piedras Blancas and Puerto Rodal by jeep. Had lunch with Abel Basti and Miguel Pellorano and 2 friends of theirs. Then saw the 19 Pudu, One of them seemed quite long-legged, but its mother and father were quite short. Several spotted young. In one pen were a male, two females, and 1 young. One of the females lost her fawn, and we saw the surviving fawn nurse from both females. They feed them winter branches and pellets (brown pellets, not alfalfa), at both Piedras Blancas, where Carlos Caliv, wife & child are to park-guard, and at Rodal, are large green meadows crops where dozens of putting green by deer, all 3 species of introduced deer (Cervus, dama, and axis) sometimes feed together, and both Basti and Caliv say that on a typical night at this season they can see 100 or more deer grazing within 100m of the cabin. Our jeep driver was taken on the road; he says to have seen little change. The forest floor continues to be

Pearson 1982 95 Dec. 12 Took the Tas-Choliffa bus to Valdivia. Saw one clump of the small bamboos blooming, high at the pass to Panguipulli. No amaranths blooming yet, no roses on the Argentine side but wild roses blooming near Valdivia. Dec. 13 Gave all-day seminar at the Instituto de Ecología y Evolución; 6 students (4 F 2 M) + Roberto Murúa and Sergio González. Dec. 14 Seminar by Dr. Figueroa, a statistician, covering Bickel, Smith, Jolly, Jackson, Soler, etc. Murúa showed me the beast they have been calling colombus megalocephalus. They have 3 good skulls, 1 skin, and 2 bodies in alcohol, which I did not look at. The skin is very dark, above and below, big leafy ears (about 20 cm, if I remember correctly), long tail (much longer than any chlamyphorus), and long front toesails. Body size, tail length, and color about as in a big colombus longipes from Peru but its ear dogs and claws longer. The teeth are simple, as in Gastreus but bigger, and the zygomatic notch is very narrow, very short, very flattened as in Agujayturus or the Peruvian cloud-forest genus. The canines are not prominent and not white; maybe not so articulated as megalocephalus, (no megalocephalus here to compare with), nor megalocephalus. I think it must be an undescribed species of a genus close to Gastreus. The specimen came from the San Martín field station (about 50 km N of Valdivia).

Pearson 1982 Peter Maresan trapped his grid at La Picada and was very disappointed in the catch: only a handful of celobros, no savourini. He had been hoping to show great stability of populations in undisturbed areas. A student in the course, Ricardo , has been trapping an area near Puyehue-Centillanca, higher than La Picada. He has not been getting celobros and was not familiar with acorampas. He lives in Osorno and teaches at an institute there, Dec. 15 Valdivia. Off to San Martin study area above me. Checked some Sherman live traps set in small grids surrounding one of the manegrids (to pick up semigrats). Also set about 10 pitfall traps (galvanized "cones" with metal galvanized funnel). Peter Maresan and 4 of the students set about 100 al-metal mouse traps at about $80 museum specials. I set 13 museum specials carefully (mostly legs in forest or bushy-grass), 3 Shermans in forest (legs), 5 Shermans in thick grass/bushberry looking for aculeamps. Then with the students we set 3 lines of Shermans in a forest across the road = 4-75 traps. The snap traps caught 1 also long; before dark. Weather warm and fine, no rain. Saw 1 clump of Chusquea quila in blossom (pointed out by Pedro Nuning, their taciturn plunky who runs the traps for them). Dec. 16 Weather clear and warm. My traps nothing.

December Pearson 1982 juvenile. More of the live traps held anything, more spring. I spot-checked 15, and 7 of them were misadjusted and probably non-functional. The evidence, however, is circumstant that populations (also div, oryz, and also longi) are very low. There must have been 300 traps nightlights with live traps and 0 captures, plus 5 also-longis in nearly 200 night-trap-nights. Merino says/populations are usually low at this time of year, he thinks they emigrate. Pedro came in with another specimen of the redescribed genus-also animal. He knew that it was different from also-longifilis. It had died in a Sherman trap in another grid that we did not see. Merino says that other grid has more fallen logs and more bamboo (quila). Peter Mercer prepared a skin & skull, and the carcase was pickled. It was an adult male, fairly large caecum, very large testes. Dec 31 Michael Christie gave me orders in December a note concerning an interview with Sra. Vernayes about bamboo: [translator] "1938-1940 is predicted each 30 years, offset, and in the last 3 years of the period the flowering increased progressively; differently at the begining of the 20th century 1900 in the last one she remembered.

som tidigare blev upptaget av H. K., som nu sökte sig, med sin H. K., till S. i D. Det fick också med sig en del andra personer, som inte var förbundsmän, men som hade ett intresse för facklig verksamhet. Bland dessa finns några, som är kända från tidigare tiders fackliga rörelse, t.ex. S. i D., som nu har gått in i H. K.'s nya organisation. Detta var en viktig händelse för facklig rörelsen i H. K., och den fick också motsvarande effekter i andra delar av landet. Särskilt märkligt är det, att H. K.'s nya organisation har fått så många medlemmar, som inte tidigare varit med i fackliga rörelsen, men som nu har gått in i den. Dessa personer har ofta haft en annan bakgrund, som inte alltid passar ihop med facklig verksamhet. Men det är ju just detta, som H. K.'s nya organisation har lyckats få till stundande, att man kan gå in i H. K., även om man inte tidigare varit med i någon annan facklig organisation. Detta är en mycket viktig händelse för facklig rörelsen i Sverige, och det får vi hålla oss på vakt mot, att den inte blir till något gott. Men jag tror, att H. K.'s nya organisation har en god framtid framför sig, som vi alla bör stödja. H. K., som nu har gått in i H.

Pearson 1982 Marroso Nov. 22. Color Cuv, weepum, Auta caught one in one of two cage traps set side by side facing opposite directions. between two bushes entire many small mouse footprints in the fine sand showed lots of traffic. Our tent under a willow was 50 ft. away. Mouse - not poit was untouched. Animal not detected. Nov. 24. Ate meat off a big lamb - roast for the first night in preference to dead mouse and raw lamb meat. Tail skin loose, seemed too big for tail, Total length about 2'4 ins, Tail about 110 ins, measured in the quickly feting state. Does not think of your other carcass.

Pearson 1983 Villa Giardino, Cordoba, Argentina. April 18-22 attended annual meeting of the asocicacion argentina de Ecologia. about 200 students plus 100 professionals such as agronomos, CONICET Fellows, INTA researchers, and a handful of university/profed, no National Park people (except Pablo Canevari on the last day). An interesting Masterclass by Cara Movia and E. Lopez Cebera from the Sab. Fotointerpretacion, Fac. de Agronomia, Univ Nac. B.A., Av. San Martin 4453, 1417 BA. Using Landsat photos and ground surveys they have produced maps of vegetation types of Neuquen. In the mountains they use 3 major Distritos of the Provincia Sufantastica: (1) Distrito de Belunen [Aroucairo, Nunez, Jorja] (2) Distrito del Bosque Caducifolio [Jorja, Nunez, Cochler, and others such as Cipres, Roble Bellin, Rauli]. (3) Distrito Vedivianero. Dist. de Belunen extends well in a long thin strip to about 36° 35' with patches of Roble Bellin in it. It goes south to about 39° 30' a bit north of the valley coming from Lago Tromen, plus a connected piece that hangs down the ridge between the Rio Clenino and the Rio Catan - Sal; threating patches may exist at the northern end of the range, to about the level of San Colorado. patches of oblique north to Lago Epuloafquen (37°) which is a little north of Chos Malal. (2) The Bosque Caducifolio begins north of the Tromen river and continues south of Nahuel Hupi. The further south at the two old shiver of Nellofoque is on the oblique nevosa.

world of Lago Melquira ad Falkner. (3) The Distrito Valdivias is represented by isolated small patches spreading from Chile at places such as Puerto Blest, NW and N of Nahuel Huapi, Lago Espejo, Lago Soco, Lago Lotoz, Lago Currhue, L. Huedeluf- puan, Lago Tromen, Lago Quiller, and one tiny patch a little farther north. Also see Drings, Fimbria, Genuino, and others. Both of Rios ad Nervosa ad Valdivias at Lago A in Hi, Baculoo goes south to Cipresia but not into Mendoza north of San Martin de los Olivos, but takes up the Rio Aluminé almost to Lago Aluminé. She uses Festuca as a precolbilla plant, with ? Poa farther East. North side of the Rio Colon Cerra is basaltic, but southside (Alicura) is not. (a young couple named Pederson from Bolivia Blanca, who collected for Christie this summer, say that there are two - trees of Zygurus Flea along the Rio San Cornella, near the Park Guard house at La Sabela (Guardeparque Zaeny). This would be in the "Empty Triangle " where there are not supposed to be any tucos. cojal (bigtoes), Pecca (block head), and Pujalta (small) have good data on sympatice vicinas ad granosos at San Guillermo, of Kravetz' mouse groups, Periech, Zuleta, Jose Maria Marcevaro, J.

group in June hopes to organize a Sociedad Argentina de Mastozoologia. The organizers themselves are Julio Contreras, Susana Meroni, and Fernando Kravetz. Susana Keifer of La Rioja finds Dolichotis pretty critical and is working on diet. Also a J.E. Jackson Andrew Tobler or Remusula Valdez (ask Christie about him). Two girls with Kravetz are working on semi - captives (big pelosover) jagustornus: Maria Carolina Nigoya and Silvia Barreiro. Also a J.E. Jackson from INTA, CC17-5730 Mercedes (San Luis), but he didn't show. Claudio Blanco from Dir, Voc. de Fama Silvestre, av Paseo Colon 922 2º P, 1063 BA is going to work on the big leguads. Scoglio, Vozza, and Velogquez from Mar del Plata had abstract about mortality of microdelphis, but did not show. Buenos Aires April 24-27. Visited people in B.A and Sa/Plata. Willie and Maryjo Margoni have been digging in shell mound near Ushuaia. They resumed the museum there and its director Oscar Zavala. Relicts are destroying many shell mounds because the mounds are the best places for burrows. Will had a photo of a grivose (in a zoo) stretched out (and up), browsing on leaves and looking

just like a stretched up impala. Visits Graham Harris, who is preparing a field guide to birds of the Valdez Peninsula. He is doing the color painting; very nice, In La Plata visited the MUSEUM institute. Branchi was in Tierra del Fuego, but visited with Dra? Sa Rioja and one other. They are deep into cobden chromacea and anguines. They seem to know of aleceson poutbolinus and Oryzomye longicaudatus from Isla Grande, but also are working on ?Isla Redonda? Had coffee with Oseddo and Estella Raig. He is on sabbatical and nothing is settled about his future. Busy promoting, writing up "general" papers, angling for Creffo's job. Dinner with Mario and Cecilia Ghirino and Eduardo Cruelli and his girlfriend. Damiana fried Mylodon bones in the back of Cura Troful 1, but not definitely associated with humans. Adam Hajduh's Mylodon in the cave in Arroyo Corral also is not definitely associated with the human artifacts. They say they have much bedrock in Cura Troful. Mario recommends as a source of fine old photos: "Reconnaissance de la Region arctique de la Republique Argentine. Magan, Patagonie, Chubut et Santa Cruz.

photos of Estancia La Primavera, and Maurice Sa Diverno also has old photos. Selveira is now working on a cave on the south side of the Rio Tropal on Maurice's estancia. Spent some time with Fernando Kravitz & family. Found four interesting old postcards in the flea market showing scenes in Neuquen & Rio Negro. Not dated, unfortunately. Jim and Ann Wood were on the plane to Bariloche. They say there are leaf-cutter ants on their Estancia on the west side of the Colon Cura, especially on north-facing slopes. Student Javier Calvo dropped in at J with a proposal for a study of bird and mouse populations in a large forest on Cerro Otto, then Michel Christie at 9:00. They have catched Octodon at both ends of Sogo Curvilo, and acomampy pruscae at Sogo Soloq. They burned up a number of specimens trying to freeze-dry them in an oven with moth flakes; spilled! Michel has lost numerous field partners out during the summer and they have saved about 500 skulls; mostly also large. April 28 - up at 6:30 to get in line for Foreign Identification papers. no luck. Weather cold & drizzly, but sun came out about noon. Dassi't get light until 8 a.m. Got car running. Had coffee with Siegfried Rubelin, who was awaiting arrival of glass girls.

hereabout, including some with many seed ash layers. Didn't puma, Calo didn't show for his appointment. April 29. Friday. Up Cerro Otto at dawn to photo Larga forest, but truck ahead of me got stuck at our usual stop (Triple range). Sniffed around and found two diggings in a clear swall in the Sena forest a few hundred yards below the triple range; also some on the left and in the meadow at the old homestead across the road from the Confiteria and this slope (120m); also many in black soil among scattered Nive, Larga, and Lombos a couple of hundred yards down the road from the Confiteria. Heard none, and no fresh diggings. Some dig hopping at base of bamboo clumps. Amaway with yellowing or dead leaves and big seed capsules containing about a dozen seeds. The rosa mosqueta is loaded with red hips, the cones green or yellow. The gun-cody poppers are a little past; the large not quite red yet. April 29. VP Cerro Otto in the afternoon and put 6 pump traps and 2 cage traps Piedras Blancas (Confiteria), 3 steel or woodbrees at the clear "arawds" place in the Larga between Piedras Blancas and the top, and finally at dusk 4 steel or Woodbrees at the very top. Two of the holes at the top were open and had sort-of runways like Clearcump; and several of the burrows were big enough to easily accomodate #0 steel trap. April 30 morning partly clear, no frost.

8 topos at Piedra Blanca (Capitain) had 4 hawgi type trees and 1 alba longji. The 3 topos between those and the rifle range had 1 hawgi-type trees, and the 4 topos at the top had 1 hawgi-type trees and 1 Chalange. The Chalange was near the acorn-yr-like sign. Stood in the parking area at the Top until 3 p.m. no cars all day. Then assorted photos in the lower forest. Picked up topos at 4 p.m. Nothing new. Just as I was parking to pick up the 3 topos of the (mailing) "acornado" site (1250m), Otto of Cano Otto and his lady came strolling up the road. He says this strip was always bare. He used it as an intermediate ski slope for his classes, which may mean that he might have trimmed back some saplings, but do cut nothing big. I knew that trees were here, but I'm not sure that they really know the diff. between the Chalange and the alba. Longi that I should them, Saw 6 parrots flying over the top. Lots of birds in the forest feeding up in the trees. Caught 1 finch (?)g?spothick in a steel trap in a tree at the top. The American/Padre in the apartment offered to take a look up and scatter the contents seeds over distances of about a meter. May 1 Sunday-Mayday. Sketched and wrote letters in AM, then up Cano Otto again for photos. Same, not much wind, numerous yellow jackets coming to skulls.

Atto, gets of Sunday dinner there and thence, May2 to go Sibola at noon. Overcast but not cold or windy. Photo (Vello Encontado), then stopped at the Park Guard House at Sfebo (Horacio, Julio, and Paula Sanchez). Walked with Horacio 1 1/2 mile up the valley Sa Corolla looking for Sagoma Tree and its two trees, but find no loft. Patches of logs in the distance and open tops of the Cuyju Mangazo ruins, (lower portion) a large nest (in the ground) a couple of miles upstream, far from the road. Sit dead bores on the road between Michal Higi and Vello Encontado, several of them covered with yellow jackets. This is a private subholding within the park and Horacio feels that he is working for a private party; public not admitted, May3 Rain during night, morning 4° clear, clouds in the valley...Drive with Horacio family to Cueva Triful. Impressive cavernation, still some massive boxes left on the side under the perches. Photo of cave (outside). Left Horacio off at Sfebo at noon and went back to Vello Encontado for photos, then more photos near Sa Sibola. Home 3 p.m. a scraper man working along the margins of the road near the airport takeoff. One chevron in attendance. Checked for snakes + lizards but found none, Rosolmeso habitat.

15 20/ problemas relacionados, André de Masao Machado Herculani, Tomo III (1953) pág 105-124, after a strong pitch for relating Australasia and Patagonia acts via Bering Straits rather than Antarctica, he says Campsotoma punctatus ad Acromyrmex lobicornis have extraordinary adaptability and considerable versatility. C.P. very common from N. Argentina to Chubut (Catar del, Zapata) and "a form of this species is common in the humid regions of Tucuman. It on the altitudes of the NW the species lives above 4000m, "For this reason it is strange that this species has not yet penetrated into humid Patagonia." p123 Similarly in A.L., with the difference that it has few local forms, it is found close to humid Patagonia (Catar del), without penetrating even to the Valle Aluminé, an unidentified form is in missions with 200mm of rain. It has lost part of its "afinidad hereditaria" in crossing the arid zone of the interior of Argentina and is waiting for evolution to equip it to enter the humid zone. He doesn't list Acromyrmex for the Parques (N.H. y Zaving y) Horvits and I saw a very large actus and heap yesterday off the canyon, they were carrying dry stems, leaves, etc. not green, and piled them in a 10-gallon bags.

While we were in the road below Cueva Treful, former Parkguard Rojas drove by. He still says there are trees "en la zona" but didn't know where was the Jacques Fresco that we were looking for yesterday (although he knew the name). May 4 us frost. Day mostly cloudy. Drove past Hidde's on way to Sloo Sloo to locate ancient postcard scene. Couldn't locate spot spot, but seems to include site of the Sloo-Sloo hotel before the hotel was built. Then drove up Cueva Otto again. Photo of a clearing in large forest above the road just before the turn that reveals the microwave stations. Photo shows amaraway, Pises, grass. The amaraways are 1 to 2 ft. tall, usually with 5 peta arranging, but sometimes 6 or 7. Also photos in the large forest, which is colorful but not terrific. Then set up to photo down on the abandoned harvested towards Barbados, airport etc. Wanted over an hour for sun to hit the harvested. The airport remained sunny continuously; but 5 1/2 on the Tolder road was frequently sunny, Barbados occasionally, I never. The intense to the far east were not sunny May 5 Star dew night, frost -4°.

Victor ARR[illegible]. He gave us the keys to a cabin at the west end of Zogo Carrlwo chios. Unloaded our stuff, then went back & thru to his house and he took us to a nearby habitat of zire + canya where people had tropped. Didn't look special. Then he took us up the hill behind his house (cafria, chewra, chosay (Dicearia serothifolia), zire etc.) Set our two traps on way up the hill, then came to two patches chosay that were riddled with acroangus - like beerrums; one dirt pile had fresh scree and a hypotrogy path dropping quite fast. Put about 5 traps of various sorts at each of these two places, then went up higher to a roller bore maybe about 30m long in small zire. Put about 10 more traps there, Then returned to the road to Carrlw chios and put about 50 MS ad S terans alternating along the road in open grass - low mat. Numerous running - looking preyess. Marcelo put about 25 m snipers habitat, of two zero traps set 2 hours earlier along the road, I held a zero at 6 pm, Victor identified the underhand steffo mat & 2 acacia [illegible] Christ's family arrives after dark.

Broke camp at 2:00 pm and came home via Juan de Garceres and la Rinconada, yellow jackets at Jopo Carrillo Chico (east end). The Ocotin locality will be Arroyo del Escurial, 2km E 3km N Cerro Huanguichue, 1140m. The [illegible] was in a Museum Special set left to a Sherman. Home at 7:15 pm. Summary: The presence of 8 species including Gryz and Chelenyz in the open near "campo" was a surprise. (maybe 9 species if one of the abo/oliv turns out to be insulana). No pantherhines x The d. [illegible] seem to be small. The presence an armadillo at Jopo Verde was a surprise. The five habitat on black Pumice was open enough, but surrounded completely by forest. The Ocotin habitat, lava pumice on edge of larga/ronli is unique and seems totally different than the cipris/bush habitat above the [illegible]'s home where the INVAL crew are said to have caught one and where we saw signs that looked more like desmaepez x The Valdivian influence is not great - one patch of [illegible] along the road, no fuchsia or Drinypz. Saw and heard no birds.

of a small ranch on the N side of the road south Lombardy Palora and Wilburne, It is the second rancho on the left after passing over the summit from Palomiquen Viejo, almost every trap was spring or full (+40). Total 13 Elginos (+7 released) = 20 total, 4 Phyllostis, and 3 also fantas. This line has nice big Sofrim trees, never, a big soft comfisto brudinta soft long + short "needles" for bees, a Servico - the comfisto nila lower Mush, duraguillo, and soft background. An also fantos was caught specially at noon, sunny. at 5 pm checked line A (2 also fantas) and line B (2 also fantas ad 1 Elginos nice) x at each of the stations on line B put a Sherman baited with mouse meat close to wherever trap was there. This added 27 traps to the line; the line probably total 63 traps including 3 good traps. In the middle of the afternoon while burning I could see a couple hundred yards down the road, about 100 yards down a group of about 20 small crested tenagers milled about in the road, crossed overroad. Did not seem to be dusting. One car went through their party and they only went onto both shoulders and promptly returned to the right of way. Also saw a small quine pig cross twice. Discovered some Sofrim trees. Big old ones have burrows in the "trunk", filled with grass. Found two fairly large rodent gulls in south tunnels.

May 21 Jim W Cornell, night was clear dark & cold until 5 am when it clouded over and stayed cloudy/foggy all morning. Maybe this is the cloudiness seen from Costa Alta a week or two ago. Ran traps at 8:30 a.m., Line A with 60 traps had 1 Roethro, 2 also taultho, and 5 Eligios. No more guinea pigs, although there are tracks and droppings over a cord area. Line B with its 72 traps, 27 of the Shonums baited with mouse meat, caught 2 Phyllotia (one owned), 3 also taultho, and 33 Eligios. At least 7 of the Eligios were owned. One shonum contained 3 live guernido Eligios. One big old sculp-trapped also taultho was carrying a Sapteium seed in its mouth. The Sapteium barkes can be pale dusty green, lavender, or gray. Some have sprouty seed capsules still attached, but few seeds lying under them, almost all the scales found were gnawed open. Found two 1-inch grubs in free-filled tunnels in Sapteium stems. Took photos of line B. Left for Baridos about noon, started to emerge from clouds & fog at Estancia San Ramon, Baridos in full sun, + hawks/fleet+Trondors, snow in all directions. Home 3:30, Had just showered when Christie arrived, then the twins helped carry gear in from the car and noted shinning, then Valverde arrived. 40 or 50 Eligios into frig. + live Roethro, Elgros, and Phyllotie.

They had collections from INVAP, from Sos Meneor, which is said to be transitional to monte habitat, and from Sierra Grande (which I think was collected by someone else), no surprises at INVAP; Sos Meneor had numerous Phyllotis and (all in frustellidae) an akodon that may be micratus. Sierra Grande had groupys, a big square-edged akodon, and a big (30-g) colomys?? Will attract some shulder. They also turned over to me their Eligmo dissection notes for a joint paper. A botanist at INTA identified the soft-needle rush from Conello as Scirpus subulatus. The other 2 genera are the green-leaved S. bracteolatus and the gray/white leaved S. neayi. at 5:30 put out effort 56 M15 in the same grid of habitat as yesterday at km 44 (roadside).

of protocol magnum plena [?] at Denver & del [?] [illegible] to judge of the effect on it, I would say that Agnew's studies & Kline's study are the most valuable as they are based on the actual cases which were studied. The other studies were not so good. One was made by a student at the University of Illinois who had an opportunity of studying some 200 cases and this study is probably the best of them. There appears to be little difference in the results obtained from the two groups but the one group was very small and the other large enough to make it impossible to draw any conclusions as to the value of the treatment. I have not been able to find any reference to the case of a child who was treated by Dr. [illegible] at Denver and who had a complete recovery after being treated for 6 months.

Pearson 1983 50 Oct.26 Barabets. Winter sparkling, no wind, not cold. Drove off Cane Otto. Otto making war at the military rifle range. Walked with him to his house and took his pictures. Two condors went over. Otto said there need to be many more. The leaves have are out but still lots of snow drifts on the south slopes, a few Scotch broom blossoming and a few yellow lilacs. In town today is the tulip festival. Everyone still talking about the half-meter of snow that fell in late September in town. Revisited my amaryllis lily photo site near the microwave tower on Cane Otto. No snow remaining. The ground quite "bare", melting green and blasted with dried leaves and with dried stems of amaryllis lying flat. No new amaryllis shoots and [illegible] and only a few old earth cores, but many amaryllis shoots just below the surface of the ground; In other places amaryllis were up. Lots of earth cores in different places including among Barbair's pereai, but nowhere did we see dense networks of cores. In some place amaryllis were coming up of the edge of snow banks. Why not up yet at the photo site where the snow is all gone? At one place the snow was sprinkled with Elso-Elso (as well as ? leaves & twigs). This would keep the Elso-Elso in cold storage until the

Snow was all gone, There were still floor-floor in the tree about this snow, Lots of bird song in the tree tops, Traded the Renault in for a Toyota now. 08.29 Day clear, calm, warm; hazy clouds arrived about noon. Drove up to Refugio Keewaydin (although stopped by snowdrifts on the road about 1/4 mile below the Refugio). Hiked up to the anawang photo place above the Refugio, but they were still under snow. Floor-floor on the ground or snow in a few places. The deer are newly leaped out. Photo of the anawang/large forest on the flats about 100 yrs below the rest of the road, it was free of snow, a few Chelomyx earth core but none in photo (same photo scene as last autumn). Then snooped around the forest near the car. Lots of earth cores and indented runways, seemingly of two diameters (Chelomyx and Sorex?). Set 3 steel traps for a few hours, but no catchers), Very few anawang showing above ground + much activity centers about logs, and stumps (see diagram). Found numerous anawang tubers near earth core, but too early to see distribution because so few anawang shoots are showing. The ground is mostly dry smooth papery covering of leaves with cooling down or fallen log shagging pattern of core and runways.

fallen plastered among stalks and a few scattered seed/pods. Understory is mostly Barberia perezi, up to 2 feet high, not blooming, getting remains of giant Buffballs and lots of fallen twiglets that contain a few yellowish from tiny low-floor. Lots of Robin, warrens singing everywhere, lots of other birds: Heard no Rhinoceros birds, no flowers. Back to Barbercho at 3:30 p.m. Oct 30. Barberco weather clear, calm, warm. Drove out to low-floor and looked for tereos-tercos along the dirt road near Colonia Sings, good sandy, and looked as the river came (was) but no signs of tercos. Then drove out the road from the schoolhouse to the Hotel Jago Morano (old bat colony). Found one set of droppings along the road at the summit above the hotel, and another set about 200 yards in from the main floor-floor road. Set 4 traps for tercos. Then drove to Karina Palf's place for tea. Cerro Tronador spectacularly clear. Then at 5 p.m. picked up the traps. No action. Oct 31 Weather clear, calm, warm. Left 11 a.m. for Corolla, a bulldozer has scraped the Sapinum along the road at our terrestrial 8 to 10 km W Corolla. Wish I'd been there to catch the bad times they ran out. Stopped at the photoed Ranchos (not one west of river) and got permission to camp. Put 7 Ms around rocky outer edge of camp, and, [illegible] 37 Ms and 37 big Skerrums through the

Saffron flats, Saffrum in full bloom. Anuta also hunt traps through Saffrum. This is essentially the same locality as Glen WSW Cornalla. Evening calm, clear, warm. Mar.1 Cornalla, night calm, not cold. My 80 traps caught 10 Elgyns and 6 Also canarene. The M strops much more successful. Nothing up the hill. Anuta's 40 traps (half MS half shenan) caught 5 Elgyns, all in snags traps. Up on the rocky hill are some good silver sparta mate (azorella). Found a sprouting Saffrum seed while operating a tree cannon. Elkins in morning and set 3 steel traps in two canons. Very little tree signs. Traces cut Saffrum twigs. morning breezy, started out clear but 2/3 cloudy by noon. Set 3 steel traps for tenos at 11 AM and had them by 3 PM. During the day my trap hive caught 4 lizards and 4 abodon canarene. Extended this Saffrum line south about 12 more MS = E 86. Also added 2 rod traps and 2 steel traps to the Rocky Phyllostia line. At Anuta caught 1 also during day + lizards, and put out 13 cage traps baited with apple + oats plus 3 jumps + 20 more MS At 4 PM went to the ranch house. The lady and about 6 kids were home. Set 3 steel traps for quince/pigs in a dense current or mulberry hedge along one side of their extensive garden, which had irrigation channels. Nothing seemed to be bothering the alfalfa. Saw newly planted fruit trees and quinces. afternoon breezy with almost - complete thin overcast.

Mar.2 Cornell. Wild windstorm for a couple of hours beginning about 11:30 p.m., morning calm clear, not cold. My traps held 7 Elginos and 4 also caneascents, Auntie's two, 5 Elgino and 3 also. I saw one Phyllotis up on the hill. Proceeded traps until 10, then drove down to the ranchos and checked the 3 guinea pig sets in the current bushes: nothing. Sets got caught at the rancho. The troops of horses that they brought in yesterday were in the corral and were being chased around while incessant attempts were made to lassoo, throw, castrate, and clip manes & tails. Dust, dogs barking, children mulling around etc. Took photos; kids didn't go to school. The father's name is Ramon Neculpan, one of the boys Fabian. The mother gave us permission to camp. Their address: Cornelio Arrila. When I asked about farm owls they said they were horned owls. Also at the horse affair was the owner of the next Rancho to the west Francisco Navarro. He says he has lots of cloverup in his alfalfa. He rewardeled me how unusually hot it was yesterday, 29° he said. Auntie separated a large Texas Guerrero and sent a Mexican descalante in it. Later a stunned Texas was lying beside the traps. My big Phyllotis was held by one dead foot but had cuts on shoulder & back. Summary: 298 trap nights = 27 Elgino, 18 also caneascents, 1 Phyllotis, 2 cloversup, about 12 lizards, heard no tunas song and saw no fresh digging. Heard lone owl, seed snipe, tunaaron (saw tunaaron also). The Sofium.

was in bloom, all plants were green, more of them more than last autumn. Ants saw a few brown fuzzy caterpillars on Sophora. Lots of big lumbering beetles of 2 kinds. Saw a small grey jay cross the road at q km USW Cornell at 12:30 pm. 15 Small pellets picked up under a rock/permade near the bridge over the Rio Pichi Zenfur contained: lizard, insect, small mouse, bird, in that order of abundance. No jaws, very few bones. nov.4 Set 2 two traps at noon at Villa Don Bosco (near Zoja Venta Morro), then drove around the Zoo Zoo loop, took photos. The two holes had been plugged, seem are occupied, Last at 4 pm there was no action. Set about 10 museum specials in the woods at Sun 12 hoping to catch, Abdon diurens. Day sunny, breezy, cool. Dinner at the Pub with Gay & Solid Zallpins; the sayf temp was an unusual 27 in Barcelona on Oct. 31. nov.5 morning clear, breezy, cloudy to the west. 9 of the 10 traps in the woods were sprung; I also lounged at 4 also diurens. The two traps were untroubled. Efflond trails on Zoo Zoo Renosola, photos. Visited Felipe Volade in PM. Our specimens from East of Estacion Perito Moreno that were stored in a freezer at the University were thrown out after following a power outage. Surprised.

Dec. 6 clear, windy, cool. Went to the Parque celebration in the morning, met Erizo. Ernesto Gershwin was there. In afternoon drove with Arto, Hilda Bendoll and dog Sauro to the Alicia Reservoir, which has been filling for a week or more. On the flat upstream from the dam the lake is already a mile or so across with occasional dumbbary poplars or willows sticking out of the water. Spent about two hours looking for animals along the edge of the water (which advanced noticeably as we watched it). The habitat more river, with weeds, the big species bush, duqueillos, arina negra, other thorn bushes. Caught one peli arrachillo that was ambuling down a path, and saw lots of lizards, but no mice, marsupials, armores, lizards, frogs, or snakes. Many swallows flying, some gulls, only a couple of chimangoes. Was surprised and disappointed at the absence of mice. Thought we would see stranded marfs, wandering displaced individuals, etc. Home 8:30 p.m. Nov. 8 Day clear, breezy, cool. Drove to Refugio Meneguer at 10:30. On the trail from the Refugio to Murodor, found a handful of very small owl pellets, probably pygmy owls. 5 more-or-complete pellets contained: (1) long bones of mouse; (2) 1 Ambecomp; (3) 1 Aebicomps; (4) long bones of mouse; (5) Abdon longphlio.

fragments of pellets contained: most parts, an additional 4 Andr., 1 Geofine, and 1 pr. Dromicus mandibles. The forest floor everywhere was sprinkled with fallen large leaves, including on the snow. Photod my amaway plot (no core, amaway shoots just starting up through the sick leaf mulch) just across the trail from this plot is an area with lots of core as indrogram, and a no-core area adjacent. will be interesting to see if there is diff in abundance of amaway, at the first curve to the left coming down from Meenayer is an area (inside core) with lots of earth core (Photo) and almost no amaway, whereas lots of amaway adjacent, also across the road. The log and earth core diogrammed and photod on Oct. 29 still has almost no amaway. Conclusions from today's survey: definitely a negative correlation betwen earth core and amaway. Cause? Also, two diam- ers of core; Chelomp and Geofine? Nov. 10 Evards want to run the drop to the Alceurs lake again, this time with AK and Julie von Thunen.

The lake level is a few meters higher, at least 6 or 7 chuquos in one area; thus quills stopped to examine a piece of the water's edge where there were Keithredon droppings and while looking around, an Elyzodontis dashed out into the water, caught them. Then noticed a frog-like form seeming under water with simultaneous flake of the hind feet. Caught it; an Amygoma. Later, about 6 ft. from the water's edge I saw a dry tree mound; excavated it by hand and it promptly filled with water. Then walked around to the other side of the bush and a dry mouse scouted out of the water-filled hole and escaped. I think it was a big Elgures. Anita saw a suspicious refuge and poked it with a shovel; a tree grunted at her, catched it. It seemed to be in a shallow cave. Also picked up a large snake Philodryas. Saw a pair of Calif. Avalis. Also caught 1 small lizard. Only saw about 3 hares. Once again disaffainted in the abundance of mice, marsupials, and predators. There will be no hilltops to serve as refugia. Sunny, warm, not windy all day. At the base of a tree part of the hunting pit Anita found remains of 2 Elyzodonta.

Bardecko but Marta was at home, at 4 pm I put out about 40 traps in mico/retama/ chaña/cana/berbine much like La Veracoda but not so dense, more green grass and more glades, many of them with tacos. The cana in the little glades; the micos are 40-yr-old clumps as at La Veracoda, also put about 10 at one place along the stream. The bomboes have seemed to be the big clique. Anita put out, with Marta, a line of 50 traps in mico-open, grovia habitat with mico clumps. They caught 1 Calidris albicena before coming back. Nov. 12 Morning clear, cool, calm. My traps were in the mico now untouched. The 10 by the stream held 1 also longi and 2 spring-empty; Anita's traps held 2 more also albicena. Picked up all traps. Drove with Abel Barti and Marta down the Rio Mauso Valley about 6 km from Villagers to the shores of to see indian paintings on a cliff, mostly greometric designs, a few stick figures and one horse or guassos. The person who showed them to me was sure it was a horse and that the geometric figures were the brand marks. The owner's house had a big llama skin on the wall, killed about 7 months ago; also a big wolf bear jaw. I set a new trap line, all near stream in cana, berbine, grovia, mico, 40 traps. Anita set 40 near the cliff behind

Hiked up to Sago amor with Marta, Abel, and Marta's mother, 1 hour up, through Radoal, Retano, lavrel and Miro to a mire flat riddled with tens-tens where Marta saw a wildcat recently, then a descent through cobnut to the lake. The lake with reeds around the near end of it. Signs of ancient fire at various places in the forest. A pair of the big needfeeder was fussing around in the big cobnuts of the lake, the f recognizing, the S repeatedly investigating a hole in one of the big cobnuts. Also saw little needfeeder, flitches, earth cover of the macrophytes in the mire forest. at noon an 80-year-old [illegible], Huanchufan, came up in his inside-out-sheepskin pants/chaps, looking for astroy bull. He stopped for a rest and Abel & I asked him about bowloo and about great fires. He said that there was a flowering of the Bowloo in 1930, that it all died, and was followed by an outbreak of mice of 3 kinds: a short-tailed species, a brown species, and a grey species. That you couldn't walk through the caña without mice following or jumping onto your shoulders. The outbreak lasted maybe a month or so, and the mice then died

Pearson 1983 64 of disease. The Rio Manso was full of dead rivers. (He chose in along the manso). He said he remembered the date because it was of the time of the war with Germany (= 1939? or 1940?). Concerning fire, he said that a big fire came through from Chilin 1915 and burned all the way to the pampas and to El Bolson. No big fires since then. Abel also questioned him about the time of scaring of tucos-tucos, but I couldn't get most of his answers. Photos of Gerda Darwin along Lago Massardi on the way home, a bit passé. At our La Veranda study site, the meadow was relatively ungrazed, but had several areas of turf torn up by wild boars, probably last year. There were earth cores and gopher runways in several of these areas, probably chelonyx, but no cores in the undisturbed grass. Across the road were tucos digging and earth cores, some of them on undisturbed turf. The meadow at Rio Villagas and at La Veranda was in bloom. Under the cactus at Lago Amor and at Lago Massardi were large numbers of fallen galls about 1/2

nov. 14 Michael Christie back from the British museum reports confusion in Octodon. They have a type and a co-type of C. bridgesi bearing assorted numbers, localities added later, etc., also a number of O. degus but none labelled sermatus. Sunny & warm. nov. 15. Sunny, warm. Left at 3:30 p.m. with Michael Christie for Estancia Chocaluco. The administrador of the estancia, Jorge [illegible], says lots of tusks up inferior some smaller. Couldn't get up the steep stony grade so left our 2 care at the bottom and hiked perhaps 1/2 km across a meadow to Michael's area (not the same one as Jorge's). There were 3 limited areas with lots of two-sized burrows, gos + juvenes muddled around the bocas, but no fresh dirt excavated. In fact, very little excavated earth. One area had lots of juvenes with tough rhinoever, the second area very little juvenes. The third area was grazed almost park-like with scores of bocas. Weather warm, calm, set steel, mouse traps, cage traps till 8 p.m., and bait set MS and mouse traps, many of them underground. Beautiful dight fluffy black soil. Many burrows were wide open, larg enough to put speer hand into and they most of them larg enough to set a no. 5 steel trap with only a little excavating. Many plugged with soft plugs of cut grass + loose earth, easily scooped out. Not mixed with droppings. Saw a few Rattus/ves droppings in these 3 areas, but not a lot. Droppings of Rattus/ves also common in other bunchgrass areas and even in Espina negra. The

areas where we set traps seemed to be at the edge of a band of Barberia bushes. On the way back to the car at 8, passed one fresh earth mound and set a tunic trap there. Returning at dusk with sleeping bags and supper, saw one Rattles - signs found, ate supper in middle of the third area (greatest density of holes, no traps), but saw or heard nothing. Then checked some of the traps by flashlight (and bright 1/2 moon). One tunic in a steel trap (squealed instead of grunted), and one Shadown longipes in a cage trap. Saw two Rethrodors during this check. They sat there and let you get close to them, then run down a hole. It would be easy to shoot them with .22 caliber no.12 shot. Nov. 16 partly cloudy moon set just before dawn. A brief prayer with flashlight about 5 am saw (Rattles). Heard barn owl about this time, and I may have heard one burst of two song. Checked traps at 6 a.m. One more also long's in an underground steel trap, and a few spring-empty. Hiked back to the car. Shaved and set up in Espina negra and bunchgrass/Barberia/newer Baccharis/savio desert. Day sunny + windy. Hiked back up to the wallin and picked up traps. Two more tunics in steel traps, 3 also, longi; and one Chelomyz under a Barberia bush. Nothing in the staff traps set near the car. The chelomyz was caught since 6 am., as were the tunics.

Magra [illegible] some 20 km east of Maguara, between the coffee trees and the river. Three western fishermen barged through camp 3 times during the night, heard horneros and saw nests at the campsite, Mar. 20. Left early, drove to Chelforo, then north to Santabrosa. The amount of farrea increased yesterday, towards Maguara, and was extremely abundant; and in bloom, most of way up through the southern third of Jolampa Province (but mixed with 6 or 8 other species of bushes). As you go north, a few small Prosopis for begin to appear and by the time you get to General Ochoa, noble forests of big Prosopis. At the same time more grasses appearing and dry General Ochoa stage have started moving the roadsides. By Santabrosa there are lush pastures, wheat fields etc, but frequently a few Prosopis left in the fields or rather tinamous + scissor- tailed flycatchers. Just after we turned north at Chelforo we saw a group of ± 5 Doblitos, at least 3 of them young over half grown. At Sagr Sa Amoraga, picked up a Dor Zapostomas. Along the same stretch saw 2 families of rheas (young don't haventam size), and a guinea pig. Vezochos for sale at Ruedebor, Stopped at Parque Euro, 35 km.

There is also a zoo and a huge pecan area that contains red deer & javali etc. Drove three of the attendants into Santa Rosa at closing time, then north 10 or 15 km and camped in a strip of caldon on the edge of a plowed field that reached beyond the horizon. Between General Ochoa and Santa Rosa the road runs SE of some grass-covered hills. The road cuts through them a few km N of Santa Rosa. There are two-tower living in them. Nov 21. Wind died down during the night, cool, heavy dew. Heard a touro at 7:30 a.m.: a single note repeated monotonously for 20 or 30 seconds. Hot, sleek, & tawney tucos in the road. Drove north through rich jacufoa; caldón + cattle. Passed many white-harvesting ripe lucid well controlled, but saw none working. Corn or sorghum up in the north, but not planted yet or barely rip down near Santa Rosa. Didn't see a stream from Rio Colorado to Rio Quinto, and it barely flowing. Hares, shrubs, opossums DO R, saw numerous tucanos along the busy highway. Saw an approximation of miuna murinda 7.4 km S of the Rio Quinto, on the west side of Highway 35.

mounds stood up rather prominently, about 5 feet high (a few of them higher) in a pasture that had been used for corn last year. Pieces of tallk and a few little ears lying around, plus grazed green grass, weeds, thistles, etc., plus 50 thick steers. The hills were about 20 ft across, not very evenly spaced. The soil was very light, no evidence of a stoney foundation (we haven't seen a stone for 200 miles), and no rocks in the few low road cuts. Each mound had one or more burrows on it, not necessarily on top. The burrows were big enough to put your hand or even arm in. Some had been dug from the outside and were flat. Others were arm deep or more. They looked mostly like armwells dragings, I could find no solid evidence of true - teras. They covered an area maybe 10 acres. just on the north side of the Rio Grande, on the west side of the road, was another set of green-covered mounds, at least 5 ft tall, among scattered thin trees. Didn't stop to examine these.

72 No. 24 Pamfo de Achola. Left Rio Cuarta of S, drove towards Condoiu, then west to the Pamfo do achola. The climb up to the Pamfo quickly leaves trees behind and turns into smooth granitic outcrops, close green turf, and burkgrass (soft stifea, big coarse clumps) shallow dark soil. a few Polylepis trees in the steep arragas. some of them more than 1 ft in diameter, others only little seedlings. lots of marshy places and some little creeks. Croised second trail Jaime Polo's, found droppings of Reithrodon and a small Cryptocomorphs. Then set traps until dusk. I put 5 steel, 7 cage, and 7 ms in a dense grass place with Rethodon & C P droppings, 5 ms along the stream, 10 across dry burkgrass meadow, and then about 40 more assorted steel, cage, and ms up a canyon with grass and small stream. Very few loose-rock ridgy places. Only next 2 steel, 20 shermans, and ±30 ms night cool, clear, breezy, 2/3 moon. No. 25 morning calm, no frost. Put my traps at dawn: 3 Orymycteron, 3 Phylletta, 1 cius, 3 abodon bolivianus ±. Anita caught 2 Phylettas, 4 abodon, 1 live Orymycterom. Later in the morning, I caught another Opy on the same place where we saw cius and Reithro droppings. The rest of my trap line during the day caught 6 abodon bolivianus, 1 Opy,

Saw a hare yesterday, but not many droppings around. On a walk this afternoon saw foot tracks and a set of foot or cat droppings. Numerous came around, a few sheep. Clouds moved in from the east late in the afternoon. The mammals so far consist of: Abalon dolomiacus (seems much bigger than) Phyllostus dorsum (smallish ears). Oryzcterus, genus pig (goles or cava). hare, Oryzopus?, foot tracks, Ralltrader droppings. According to Oliver's book, Cava, Oty, and Abalon dorif get arguable nowhere. Nov. 26 morning clear, no frost. Rentlessly, continued with afforts. 1 Cava, 4 Reithrae, Abdonos, and Oryzcterus, and 1 Oryzopus. The Orzy was in the same place in the dense bunchgrass where no one previously caught the other 4 species. Set off about 10 am on a mild dash to visit assorted habitats to the west of here into a low flat valley (Pocho Valley) with palm trees with aqueducto Cava Brotero, then north to Salsacato, then west over another steep mountain range through tunnels then down onto a broad flat dusty flat

Returned at 6 pm. It must have poured and haled in our absence. Everything wet, almost all traps springing. A pollodor here says there are furies and shurovers here, not cats. Pulling my 10 traps in the rich near camp and the three along the stream in the a.m. At 6 pm ran my line and bed, on the 'abundant isle' 2 oty and 2 abo. In the arroyo was 2 Pseudotrypes, 1 oty, 1 Abalon, and 1 Cinclodes. Arrita bed 2 oty and 1 lizard. 7 hours of driving, we saw 2 steegs, dramatic mountain ranges (Sierra de Pablo and Pampa de cebola) more dramatic changes of habitat, and many miles of semiarid, rather miserable habitat. The Pampa de cebola with its total lack of trees and marshy/ bunchgrass/grante/ almost no brush habitat is certainly unique.

Broke camp and left about 10:30, drove down the west side of the massif, south to Merlo where we left Juan et al. Members of this expedition were Juan Deff, Marcos w/ the technician from Rio Cuarto, Arturo Aggiero Keller from Dept. of Zinologia near Sa Plata, the chappeen Fernando ... AKP and OP. I never got an account of their captures in their oil-can traps, but think it was a modest number of Phyllothi and Chodors. We loused them 20 big Sherman to compare efficiency with their traps, [illegible] but got no report. From Merlo drove to San Jesus and had a cafe with Crea Maria Bezodo who, along with Victor Rodriguez are studying teco-teco in the Prov. of San Juix. She came to my lecture in Rio Cuarto. Then drove to Mendoza and arrived about 11:30 P.M. Toads crossing the highway, apparently result of recent rains. Temps. about 100° F. Mar. 28. Mendoza. Went out to [ADIZA] in their new quarters; very impressive.

from Cerrallo, a large group was in Victoria. Visited the Caprabo family in the afternoon, they had coffee with Vergilio Roig who is hoping to based up an institute to study birds & mammals of the entire country. Nov. 29 left Mendoza at 8 and drove south via San Rafael through some well-watered flats with plantations of Populus and willows, and through some real monte. No Bolotus for Chelungs near San Rafael, Then to El Sornado (nothing) then west on the road to Petroca. The upper end of the valley (Valle de las Leñas) is being developed as a ski resort !! and instead of the dirt road that we affected, a magnificent road is already built for much of the distance. We drove in past the molder and past the resort in construction to the end of the road (a bulldozer sitting among snowdrifts). We set traps in low shrub shrub and spring bunchgrass where there was recent animal digging. Soil light but very stony. We each set two trap lines, mine with many real traps, some cage traps and NS. Anta caught a Chelungs magalonyi in the first half hour (before dark), the first one for Argentina. Slept by the road, night clear, breeze, mild temp., much warmer than at Pampa de Achala. Large fluttery bat at late dusk. Saw & heard seed swift, the invisible "growing whistler" (a swift?). We seem to be at the lower end of Valle Terocoso, 45 km ENE of Valdez castana.

P.S. Diego says Valle Hermosa is much farther east, even beyond where we hiked, over a pass. Mar.30 Valle Hermosa. Day clear, warm. Aunts lower line of 15 MS caught 1 baby Chelomys magdalenae, [illegible] 1 Alodora Loripesili, and some spiny crickets. Their upper line, 12 traps in grass at 32 in prickly bushes, caught 1 Cheloms 1 Auliscomys, 2 also Lorigi (all in bushes) and one ground tyrant in grass. My lower line caught 3 also Lorigi; my upper line caught 11 also Lorigi. Many spiny crickets on both lines. In the afternoon, sunny, warm, hiked 2 hours up the valley to where it opens out into a broad, sparcey vegetated valley with many green scaps, all looking very alfiflous. Lots of snowbanks around, some closing the road; there spanning erecks. Saw two places with two burrows, and left a steel trap at each for about 2 hrs, but caught nothing. One of them had big earth cores next to it, at our highest point, on the edge of the broad valley, on a knoll, were droppings and sunken runways almost heavily of Chelomys. No E caviomorph droppings. This must be maybe 400 m elevation above our campsites. Returned to camp at 7 pm and reset steel traps that we had carried up the mountain. 2 more Alodora, a Cheloms, and some lizards. Night clear, not windy. Dec.1 Trace of frost in a.m. My lower line had 1 also ad 1 Chelomys (live) [about 10 MS and 6 cage traps].

steel traps and 20 ms] caught 6 also longi. auta's upper line [10 Sherman, 2 steel, 29 ms] caught 7 also longi, 1 Cholempo, 1 hood. The vegetation in our trap lines here was primarily low prickly bushes, scattered, such as Chujunuraga, Barberia, Adesmia, a few scruffy weeds, and some robust, yellow-berbed, strong leguminous bushes with "needles" instead of corland leaves. Like Adesmia, also a very shiny willow grass and a shiny bunchgrass, all growing on very stony but loose soil, also occasional Lolletia and Agorella, Grazed by goats, sheep, cattle, horses. Broke camp about 11 a.m. Stopped at the gorgeous new ski resort, Valle de las Cienegas, and asked 2 guys what its elevation is. They said 2800 m. This would put our camp and specimens at about 3000 m (5 km up the valley by running road). When we hiked up the Valley we probably went about 5 hrs, = 40 km E of Volcan Peteroa. A man riding a mule came through camp. When asked about Valle de las Cienegas he had never heard of it (worked two other people), but he said "Cieldeces" just about 7 hrs up the valley in very short, sparse, vegetation. We saw no vegetation that I would associate with Acosampas, and no camoufles.

Only 4 cars on the road, one of them out of gas. Camped in Barras/ Ephedra (mistletoe)/thorn legume. Ante/pint out 12 NS and two steel traps (guinea pig droppings). Night calm, clear. Dec. 2 Clear, nothing in traps. Drove to Chos Mdel (10 a.m.), Questioned 4 people about "medanos" near the town and none knew about them, or about tucos-tucos. One informant said he was from San Luis and was familiar with tucos and that there were some near Chos Mdel. As we left the town and crossed the Rio Neuquen, there were good sand dunes on the south side of the river just over the bridge. We could find no evidence of tucos2, however, either in the dunes or in the scrubby habitat nearby. Certainly no contact of 2 species, a la Budin, at that spot. Drove south on Route 40, mostly unpaved, mostly gout country, and camped under the willows of Elsen Cura. Cool, almost calm. Ante/pint two cage traps at the runway where she caught maranosa last year. Dec. 3 Clear, cool. A bigpoint Elegans ante in the traps. At about morning a tucos-tuco called several times near our sleeping, answered by another one nearby. The call was a guttural "burrip, burrips followed

Found only 3 pellets; 2 Eligidontia, 1 Oryzomye, 1 Calomys. Stopped again at the Alcuera lake after seeing 2 snakes squashed on the road within 20 yards of Coldther. Searched along the shore and beat the bushes, but saw only 1 there and 1 trail. About 8 large dark herons roosting in an island of willow tops. Home 12 o'clock; cloudless, warm. The roses were blooming and even forming seed of Alvea, but not yet blooming near Tortin Chocalves. Rosa mosquitos just starting at Bariloche. Between Rincon Grande and Tortin Chocalves we saw what appear to be real tucos-buros- in the empty trunks! Heard none while we stood around (11:30 a.m.), also saw 5 guanacos near there.

Clouded up again at sunset of Sago Falkner. No bamboo blooming en route. The lupine glaciers at Roca Molan (nobody there). Camped in the North campground at western end of the lake and set traps along the edge of the lake where the forest comes down to the water (Coibus, caña, Berberis, gorgeous Voltran clearings).

We left at 5 pm and set trope along the road to Compleencia on the west side of the road, 10 km NNE Manuel H. Rafi. We had seen open burrows here yesterday. There is some fancy new construction west of the highway at this place. The first thing we saw when we stopped was a squashed, dried big buron (Salictis cavia). There are many holes in the banks the size of shanks or [illegible], lots of Rathrodan droppings, a few two-sized droppings, lots of Betry ants, and numerous fist-sized galleries mostly open, right size for tuscos. Set about 9 steel trofs and one macabee. Neither saw nor heard tuscos. Warm, partly cloudy, some cut grass untunels.

The traps held 2 large Chelomes, other traps not disturbed (8:30 a.m.), morning warm, hazy-cloudy, calm. Returned to Barilochi at 9:30 a.m. Between Confluencia and Natural H-erfi on this Saturday morning were 4 DOR bases. At 5pm went with Javier Perez, Saho and Graciela up Cerro Otto and set 50 Shermane along a trail through dense cana and lenga on the south slope below the Piedras Blancas ski run. Set of Chelomys diggings. Also put 10 cage traps baited with bread along loops. Weather partly cloudy. Only one car on the road. Dec 11. Morning partly overcast. Ran traps on Cerro Otto at 9:00. My 10 cage traps held 1 Chelomys and 1 also lengi. The 50 Shermane in the cana caught 2 lactating alba longi. At 6:45 pm, sunny & warm, my traps held nothing, one also longi adult in the 50 Shermane of Javier Graciela. The tabanids fierce. Dec. 12 Went to the "library" of the Club Andino and stumbled to a book: Ing. Nicolas Sebeoff, 1942. "Informe Preliminar sobre los estudios de las bosques en la reserva "Sanin."

Pearson 1983 that if the banco is "uva, alta y tupida", no method of cutting timber will be successful because no seedlings survive. "Si la cana queda, no habria reforestacion," He has table of tree species and diameter on various study plots with and without banco. On 126 he says that "Ing. Menegoz said that the last flowering in the region of Sego Sacar was 1928 or 1929. Until now [1938?] the plants produced from seed don't spread 1/2 to 1 m." Could he be referring to the delto quila "species" of laurel? He claims that the seedling spend the first year building up rhizomes etc, then producing big canes each year. Dec. 14 To Buenos Aires. Visited Kravetz and Perich in the afternoon in their quarters of the medical Center on Paraguay (Plaza House), then dinner with the Kravetz family. Jorge Morello is the new president of Parque, Dec. 15 Visited with Miguel Pollarolo in the morning, and Osvaldo Ray in the evening.

Plus Jorge Robinowitz, Brown and Dr. [illegible] from Krovets lab. Dec. 19-22. To Squagui and visit with Maurice and Diane Rumboll. They have seen a striped monodelphis here but have not caught it. We saw 2 agoutis, porcupine tracks. The difference between the Brazilian side of the river and the argentine side is dramatic. On the Brazilian side the forest inside the park is much more mature, but outside the park is thickly populated and cultivated. Returned to Buenos Aires and bought old postcards at 2 shops in a Galeria de Cuentos 846. Dec. 23 Bariloche. Sunny, warm, windy. Rosa mosqueta blooming and some mendo. Drove to Nahuel Huapi and took photos of mendo highlighted between the terminal moraine and the road to Tehuel Molod. Dec. 24 Bariloche. Sunny, warmer, windy. Drove up with Otto and the Kelly sisters. A few camay blooming low down; the forest full of camay plants high up but none blooming there. Very few with buds, even.

92 Dec. 28 Photo exhibit at Hotel Bellevista, 28 people came, Abel Basti had been researching bamboo and fire history in the Rio Villages - lower Rio Manzo area. He reported that there was fairly good agreement that the bamboo and rotoda occurred in 1939 [the year she was married etc] Big fires occurred in 1905 and 1915. Everyone seemed to think that the bamboo now is not as big as it used to be. One house closed up the doors & windows, but the smoke came down the chimney. Dec. 29 Every part of day had still no real rain. Drove up to Refugio Marmyer, Amaranth in bloom on the flats, but over in the forest only in sunny spots. As you walk up to the first lake down the Refugio you come to a place where the Amaranth stops as if cut with a knife; solid Amaranth, then none, my photo spot with the log is solid, tall Amaranth, except that some stems have been snapped or cut off about a foot above the ground. They are only in early bud stage, so who? Across the path, where I photographed earth cypress Nov. 8, there is almost no Amaranth but lots adjacent. At the first bend in the road below the Refugio, also photographed for abundant cores on Nov. 8, there are very few Amaranth except lots close by. Dec. 30 Drove to Rio Catano Otero. Stafford Roberts report it is indeed dry this year. He showed me kingfisher holes in a mud bank near his house at the west end of Zapu Venerdi. Mosquitos and horse flies at our campsite;

Jan. 5 Became windy during the night, clear in a.m., then mostly cloudy and windy in p.m. Drove up to Refugio Huemayor. Amarany blooming in sunny spots, but most of it is still in bud. Lots of big brightly caterpillars crossing the dusty road, pale blue-green markhor, bocks anta saw them eating leaves of young langa. Barilche Jan. 6 Windy, mostly clear. Drove up to top of Cerro Otto at 4pm. Very windy, Amarany in full bloom in open/places, but not even started in the forest. Barilche Jan. 7 Stormed during the night but clear in the morning. Forgot to mention that on Jan. 4 at Rio Hernady I noticed that in the middle of the [illegible]-sized dosdeyi and cipres are some huge old dead trunks of nothofage with brambler indicating that they grew in open habitat. They must have been over 100 yrs old and had been dead maybe 50 yrs, hence this forest was fields 150 yrs. ago. Chilean missionaries are said to have been on this side the lake in year 1 Jan. 8 Very windy in a.m., mostly clear, but rain by 1 pm. Drove to Confluencia to re-take old photos of Valle Encantado alicura and Piedra El Miraculo. Reservoir almost up to Confluencia.) Jan. 9 Very windy, mostly clear.

I looked for but detected no alcedon inscutes in other collections. Javier Belloti said that the INVAP Euryomyza was in Cumbayara/Colafoto (= Berberis) x Jan. 10 Sunny, not windy. Drove to Troful 9:30 to 11:30. Two dead hoers on road to Coflucencia, 2 between Cofluencia and the McCloid house on Lago Troful; One of them at 4 p.m. had 2 yellow pockets on [illegible] it. Had lunch with Dr. and Mrs. Felpe Garvinere Jr. at Estancia La Primavera. He says no teco-tuco there, no tucoana; were a few sheas when he was a boy there; old timers used to say lots of huemule. Took two photos for which Garvino had early photos. He recommended a book of photos by Arón Avendano, maybe available in the library of Parques in Buenos Aires; about 1900. He has 3 or more splendid mammal paintings by Jorge Mayol, and [illegible]. He is convinced that there is much more forest now, and the original forest was not cut for lumber. Then returned photos to the McCloids. Their caretaker's wife's mother lived there all her life.

Lots of caterpillars crossing the trail, moters picking Berberis leaves on the Pampeado H. menudo. Some [illegible] amaryllis plants at the photo site at the end in the reed, Jan 12 Finished the exhibit for the Municipal Museum, (assisted by Gustavo Abecasis). Nereo Bonino came to call, with color photos of the habitats that he traffied in at Sommacura. He describes it as basically an island of Pleasingen habitat set in monte (farrea). So mmunara is monte. The habitat where he caught the Volturnus edwardsii was quite brush-grassy without many bushes, soil with many small stones. He said corn meal bait. Said there were numerous holes in the ground of mouse size. He detected no tree-toeces, moras (Dolichotis) in monte but not at Sommacura. Jan 13 Took the mouse exhibit to the museum and turned it over to Sr. Luciano Left for Cornello at 11 A.M. Picking ran across reed at 2 p.m. at our trafficking area. Set 15 cage traps for Phyllostus in rocky places, and the following traps in the usual Stellingia habitat for Elyorodonts: 90 museum springs and 72 big Sherman's. The Stellingia is in front, a few of them ripe (dry). Various Slevios

Delivered photos to the two farm families, harvesting alfalfa. Big potato plants. Jan. 14 Night freezing, mostly clear. Picked up traps 6 to 10 a.m. On the rocky hill near Chaca in the 10 cage traps set for Phyllotus were 205 Euneomys. 5 other rocky slope cage traps held 2 Phyllotus. The Shermons and #15 traps held 4 Abdomen canescens and 30 Eleguandula. Many scattered, spring #15 (but not Shermans. Only 6 of the mice in Shermon, all Elegius. The Elegius population breeding also said. Saw 2 herds of 12 rock rheas near Canedo Bonto; a squared Peludo west of Pitaingen. Picked up a ranch family going to Barbalo. Good informant. Husband said no guaneros at Pitaingen but a few on San Ramon. Says you see lots of Peludos in winter but that the Pelos disappear in winter, either the blessings of cows as sheep forage. The Euneomys didn't eat any apples all day, and only a little bit overnight, ate grass end-on, and rolled costa. A soft fluffy gentle beast.

Pearson 1983 = sociabilis? ctenops (red-cheeked species) with moustache Nov. 15. Estancia Fortin Chacabuco, went with Anita and Michael Christie to an area above a mallin 3 km S, 2 km W of Cerro Pintado. Saw 3 discrete areas with a large density of tusas burrows, many of them open, many plugged with grass cuttings, some with fresh dirt excavations and no earth cover. One area with lots of pumice but not wet or even damp. Cell with beautiful light black soil. Michael went home about 6 pm and Anita & I set traps in two of the colonies, returned to the car at , then returned to the colonies at 9:30. Ducks was about 9. Ate sandwiches in the middle of one colony after dark (1/2 moon, clear), then slept behind a Barberia at the edge of another colony even checking traps by flashlight (1 tusa, 1 also longi). We saw and heard no tucos, heard baroual. Saw 3 Roithrider. Nov. 16 Checked traps at dawn, no tucos, no Roithrider. Return to car, then picked up traps at 2 pm. Two more tucos, 3 also longi, 1 ctenops. Saw and heard no tucos, and saw only one fresh earth excavation among the hundreds of burrows. All 3 trapped specimens squadded rather than greasted. When Christie was returning home yesterday at 6:15, he stopped at one of the colonies and saw about 3 tucos with red shoulder emerged from the burrow, and several individuals were "singing": a bird-like, high- pitched trill? song. Phrased like St. longi but high-pitched. Several individuals within maybe 5 meters were singing. The groups of individuals seem to occur in colonies

Pearson 1983 102 Stenomyza (cont.) set among bunchgrass and/or gramineae, and the vegetation has been altered: the bunchgrass is much less vigorous and the green between clumps is more turfey. Burrows often open in the middle of clump of bunchgrass. The density of burrows and absence of fresh digging reminds of the colonies of St. peruvianus. all 3 skins show a bright Rufous orange/brown on each side of the nose, and a montecito black close off white below, the white part of the mount looks quite long. The feet seem small. Dec 6 Went at 3pm with Anita, Isabel Christie, and 3 of her crew to another area above Estancia Fortin Chocobuco (2 km S 2 km E Cerro Pintado). This area is a dried- out mallin, no brush whatsoever, scattered bunchgrass, gramineae, and turf closely grazed. The tucos are in a band between closely cropped mallin and levels bunchgrass. Light soil. The vegetation turfier, the bunchgrass without dried tops as nearby. Dozens of open holes and closed holes, many plugged with cut grass stems. The colony where Anita & I watched was about 1/2 acre. At 4:30 set 5 steel traps. Sunny, light breeze, warm. Promptly caught a very young tucos. Before we left at 7:30, Anita and I saw maybe 6 or 8 tenors, most but not all young ones. At one hole, a large as a small one were bearing out at the same time. They held their heads up like an earlier ground squirrel.

Very little fresh digging, many open holes, closely grazed, and lots of Rattlebox droppings. One tree seemed out of a short open hole with Rattlebox droppings around it; The loudest call in a bird-like chitter. Two or more will chitter back forth to each other. There is also a soft whimper. No hard tree sounds. The whole impression is one of a colony of ground squirrels.

Pearson 1983 104 Chelomys megalocephala Dec 1 Valle Hermosa, 45 km ENE Volcan Paterna, probably 3000 m. In this habitat of scattered low brushes, mostly spiny (Adesmia, Berberis, chiquirapa, another Adesmia - like brush with "needles" and yellow logune flower, and spiny cession grass) growing on light soil containing many flat stones (can't dig with shovel), burrows and signs of operations snowdrifts nearby, are very abundant. No carnivorous droppings, and no tunnels by cruzol, forticar, caught Chelomys in all habitats, all white-tailed field rat 7131. Sign was also abundant much higher, maybe 3400 m in sparse alteleous type vegetation. We preserved all specimens except 2 white-tailed juveniles that weighed about 18 g. each. Our live one caught in a cage trap we just took with me in a cage with carrot [crossed out], crackers, cheese, and mouse carcass. It died, probably of thirst, having eaten some cheese, some mouse, but no carrot or cracker. They squeal when molested. Its associates were Abdera concolor, Aulacorys microfusa, and lots of Abdera longipalis x juveniles, breeding males, and pregnant lactating females in the population.

Style lectotype tail is almost all dark, only bands on basal 1/3rd. Tail is long-haired, spemalled, but not tufted. Tail bone of top color 14mm long. Tail "vertebrae" in prepared skin were 137mm long. In the cotype, bones of top were 9mm. long, tail 12-8mm. The bridgesi tail was much hairier than ours. Shell: our 061 In the cotype of bridgesi, the plane of modus slopes backward and the bulged is about equal to the top of the conch. In the lectotype, the modus doesn't slope backward and the bulges are about 2/3 top of conch. Both lectotypes shell length 47+mm. Shell more elongate, heavier than ours COC 061.

Reamer 1983 115 Colomys larva and musculinus Dec 14 Visited with Kravetz in Buenos Aires. He was surprised that we were catching Colomys in southern Neuquen. For distinguishing the two species, he says: larva has shorter tail than musculinus, more sudden change of color at lateral line, sole of bird feet paler, frequently a dark line down the middle of the foot. Apr. 9 an article in Ameghiniana 1983 says Colomys from Esquel. (Massera)

Pleakon 1984 acroncyx fuscus parteri at 7:30 pm Jan. 3 Pusa Indica. Put 10 steel traps in dense bamboo/ saline forest on the hill north of the old hotel, in an area about 50 ft x 50 ft. These 10 occupied about half the holes visible. The holes were open, hardly any excavated earth. When I was clearing out one of them I found a deposit of soft green bamboo chips. The bamboo here was immensely stout, lots of new shoots. Numerous pieces of soft, 1" cane were lying about, some 2 ft long or more, no tooth marks on them. Maybe cows? Also some "stumps" of bamboo ground off 6 or 8 inches above ground, looking like miniature beaver stumps. 8:00 Sat quietly from [illegible] to 8:30 pm (sunset) bud saw & heard nothing except cruising wasps. But at 8:30 had one adult A acronyx. Jan. 4, at 7 a.m. traps held 1 adult and 2 baby acronyxs. Both babies had milk in the stomachs. Rather adult in captivity has eaten bamboo, apple, or rolled oats. 7157 when the high pitched squeak that I can't describe. Sacrificed one for Sibley. Jan. 5 The remaining individual is eating bamboo, Jan. 6 Has eaten all his bamboo and a little bit of apple. Very inactive. Jan. 9 Christie has a specimen from Sagar Soley.
