Duke E. Rogen 1981 Journal 0945 hrs Arrived Cuatupan, which is a company town surrounding a sugar mill about 20 min east of Berizaba along the old non-toll road.

I plan to wait another 2-3 hours to set traps. 1400 hrs Prepared to set traps. Weather was pty cloudy this morning (ca. 20%), but the clouds moved in completely by 10:30 and it has been raining since 11:00 hrs. 1540 hrs Returned from setting 60 traps ca. 20 in forest- (not mature, but with some rotten logs) on ca. 20° slope. The remainder were placed in secondary brush, vines, and herbaceous growth. 1600 hrs Stan and Dave collected 6 individuals of the species they wanted from the mountain. They also collected two other species (several individuals of each). We have decided
