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-

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

Dick Sago trapping at Puerto Bleit for 2 nights (Nov.

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

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 CaƱada
