Montanula, "Barrancas de Trucheras", Depto. Comayagua, Honduras (ext) Jan. 8 ... and the collecting manager at the Field Museum had figured out that K. Schmidt had written down the locality in error - it was actually on the old highway to Siguatepeque between El Carrizal and El Socorro. We also looked at the specimens and they are clearly not B. occidentalis based on the feet. After failing to get to the site from the south, we came in from El Carrizal and stopped at a creek in Montanula. Although the hillsides here are completely converted to agriculture, there is still some OK to good forest along the creeks. We opened the few spiny Brochials we saw. A cool passion of some sort ran out of one, and I got an cloentodes cenchoa in another. I also got a Linia sebae in a log. There were tons of stones and broadleaf plants that seemed good for salamanders at night, but it was difficult to look here during the day. We also looked in some red baranas. The forest along the streams could be described as gallery evergreen moist forest, while the small patches of trees on the hillsides were pine and oak. This seemed like B. mexicana habitat. We searched from 15:00-17:00 and then drove to Lago Moja, where we stayed at the P&D Brewery again. Bob had made arrangements for us to visit the [illegible] site tomorrow and the [illegible] site the next day, and promised to get some kids looking for the 2-legged snakes he said he saw from time to time (we'll see...).
