Brief
Aug 19, 1932
a total of 103 snakes for less than
two weeks at MurciƩ.
On the way out, we stopped at
Arroyo Guayaque to seine fish.
Arroyo is 20 miles from Murcielago.
The seining was remarkably good,
catching at least eight species in-
cluding one little beast which looks
like an athorine.
In Alamos we stopped to meet
Jim Hilton, who talks much as he writes.
He showed us four Terrapene klauberi
which he is going to give the San Diego
Zoo and gave us some Hemidactylus
from alamos.
Past Navajon we ran into a
very heavy thundershower. The roads
were very muddy and difficult to drive.
We met an American who said that
there was a bad spot further on where
two trucks were stuck, and the only
way past was in the railroad bed.
We decided that this obstacle would
better be faced in daylight so we
asked out, hoping for a dry morning.
is an athorine of a genus previously recorded
further north than Mazatlan.
