C. zonatus 20 4 mi. W Fortin, 3400 ft., May 13 Similar to coffee plantation visited yesterday but with more ornatricus trees. On a slope there is a fair stand of semi- virgin forest. I found only 2 pairs of wrens—both of them in clumps of orange trees near a house, I hunted along the edge of the forest on the slope without seeing wrens. This is strange as habitat of large epiphytes covered trees seemed suited for wrens. It is apparent that the distribution of thei wren is spotted with “pockets” of wrens here & there separated by large stretches of unoccupied territory.
