Octo.
May 26 - 1929.
Visited mines A, B,
C. 4 miles east of
Pocatello with kodak &
flash light equipment in hopes of
photographing bats on the ceiling
of mines.
Two long-eared bats were
photographed and collected;
one from mine B, and one
from mine C.
They were hanging quietly on
the rock ceiling and even a
flash light flame and smoke
did not disturb them.
Time: 11:30 A.M.; cloudy
day.
On these ceilings were
found 2 small insects; body
length 3 mm.; total length from
head to end of wings - 5 mm.
They are light buff color and
have only two wings, very
agile in life and fast
clingers; appear to be diptera
5 square feet.
