Ravito, Dear 2006 Journal Cerro de los Monos, near San Lorenzo, Finca de las Minas, Depto. Zacapa, Guatemala Sept. 6 Today we worked on Cerro de los Monos in the Finca de las Minas. We drove from the main road, took the turnoff to Ojo de Agua and drove on a dirt road through a locked gate with a guard for the marble mine at San Lorenzo. We went up a star but easily, possible (in our 4x4 truck) 19.7 Km from the highway to the marble mine and small village of San Lorenzo. We then turned onto a fairly good but seldom-used road leading N from San Lorenzo to Cerro de los Monos. From the Montania Valley, the vegetation changes from dry forest to pine oak forest to a forest with some small Bromeliads just below San Lorenzo. Above the level of the mine, the forest begins to have more bromeliads and gradually changes to excellent-looking cloud forest with large hardwood trees and many Bromeliads. We drove up to 2200m and stopped where a tree with bromeliads had fallen across the road. Carlos opened one bromeliad and found a subadult male Bolitoglossa with webbed feet, a red-brown color and spots on top of its tail at 133o (CRVA1042: 15.11328N, 89.67802W [WGS84, 9m acc], 2200m elev). Ted said it was the same as the Bolitoglossa sp., now "Finca Planada" collected here (a few) and at nearby Finca Planada (many). We walked up the road searching mainly in bromeliads and found a tiny juvenile of the same species in a large bromeliad growing at the top of the bank, only a little off the ground. The habitat here was more disturbed so we walked back to the car and drove ~10m down the road. I found a Cryptotriton sp. adult in a bromeliad in a pine tree (CRVA1044: 15.11223N, 89.67793W [WGS84, 9m acc], 2200m elev). Ted found a Xelopus tonacanonis here. We opened many bromeliads here but found nothing more. We drove down the road towards San Lorenzo,
