Haris, Dean 2005 Journal Oct, 28 Huchuetengo to Barillas, Quebra de los Cochuratares, Dept. Huchuetango, Guatemala (cont) ... more exposed. In about half an hour, cl had found 1 B. rostrata and 1 B. [illegible], and the others found 6 B. rostrata all in rotting logs. We didn't find any Pseudureyes rex, which we were expecting to find. We also found 1 Sceloporus malachiticus group (15.81719°N, 91.51669°W [WGS84, 5m acc.], 3108m elev.). We drove on and continued on the same road, which became very bad with lots of potholes and rocky spots. We arrived in Barillas around 9PM and stayed at the hotel Villa Virginia. San Ramon and Chiblac, east of Barillas, Dept. Huchuetengo, Guatemala Oct, 29 We drive east from Barillas to go to Finca Chiblac, the type locality for B. jacksoni, Pytandris pernix and Bradytriton siku. We missed the turnoff for Chiblac and drove to San Ramon, further down the road and below 800m elev. Ted showed photos of B. jacksoni and Pytandris to some men from the village. A few seemed to think they had seen B. jacksoni, and a boy said he had seen one a week ago up on the hill. It's possible they had confused it with another species, however. No one seemed to be very familiar with Pytandris.
