MF Smith 1994 JOURNAL Fundo San Martin, Comuna San Jose, Provincia Valdivia, Chile Dec. 8 wheelbarrow to transport the traps along an overgrown trail through the forest. We set along the edge of an enclosure that hasn't been used for four or five years. There are large patches of dead bamboo. We set along the edge where there was some green vegetation. We took the remaining shermans to another area on a trail that starts from the drive closer to the house. Altogether we set 160 shermans, plus 35 museum special snap traps. Pablo Munoz said at lunch that he has been catching very few animals on the lines he runs twice a month. The reserve is run by the institute of ecology and evolution, which is Milton's department. The area has the only patch of native forest left in the region. Some of the species of trees present in the forest are as follows: Notofagus glauca roble blanco Notofagus obliqua roble gallin Aristotelia chilensis maqui Eucryphia cordifolia ulmo Luma apiculata arreyan roja cinnamon colored bark Amomyrtus luma luna Gevuina avellana avellano Embothrium coccineum motto
