24a Eucercops chinalibanda 11 Dec. a large and a smallish one caught yesterday on microwave Hill were caged separately and fed apple, rolled oats, and Ephedra. They sat still all day but became active after 10 p.m., The big one was in a wire-floored cage with filter paper underneath to collect urine samples; the papers were thoroughly saturated (t o atuned) in the morning. She urinated on another paper when I picked up. She had eaten all her oats and had cut off some Ephedra stems. The smaller Eucercops cut some Ephedra stems, did not touch her apple, and did not eat any of the four fresh sheep droppings left in the cage; The large Eunna (8125) produced considerable clear, runny urine during the day. am letting it evaporate in a Petri dish.
