Atlixco, Puebla, Mexico to Ixcay, Huehuetenango,
Guatemala.
22-24 Jun. Pond where I heard some Angistomops calling.
We got 5 of them - always under thorn bushes
or cactus at the edge of the water. Also
in the pond got 1 Bufo - (see catalogue).
Along the road we picked up a good series
of the Bufo, plus a series of B. marinus.
We also got a small Constrictor constrictor.
We got a hotel in Tehuantepec (Hotel
$3.09/person?) then decided to do a little
more night cruising. We hit the road to
Salinas Cruz - 18 km, all paved.
Oaxaca
Tehuantepec
18km
-> Salinas Cruz
We got another Bufo, & a very
recent DOR Trimorphodon, & a live
Loxocemus. The road is dry-draining
desert-like land, but with some standing
water with reeds. We heard frogs calling
but didn't look for them - if sounded like
a 1 or 2 sp. Mytilid chorus. We prepared our
specimens that night, then slept. Next day
we went as far as San Cristobal.
