Jan. 23 ... B. hartwegi; 2 were under boards laying on sawdust and the
other 4 were under the bark of boards. We also got a big Bradytrita
silus under a board. After dinner, we searched along a stream on
the N side of town from 19:45-20:45, Electrolyte just could be
heard calling along the stream; we caught 5 and collected 3. I walked
along a side trail above the stream and got a B. ruferosens on a log;
also saw an opossum in a tree. I found a tiny Brangster along the
road but didn't collect it. The day was mild with no clouds, and
the night was clear and cool. They told us the last big rain here
was 2 weeks ago.
San Jose Marcel, Depto Huchuetanango, Guatemala
Jan. 24 We got started at 08:45 this morning with 2 quetz and returned
to the site where we got the Bradytrita yesterday, after getting only
1 small green in a pitfall trap along the stream. We searched in more all
wood from 10:15-11:45 and got 5 B. hartwegi and a Splenornorphus,
all under boards. After searching for another site and eating lunch,
we searched for another 10 min in logs on a nearby trail and I got
another B. hartwegi. We drove to a road junction 3.8 km S of San
Jose Marcel and opened 10 bromeliads in a corn field and on the edge of
a forest - Carlos got 1 B. cucummatana in a big bromeliad. We opened
another 6-7 bromeliads in a forest but got nothing. We drove up the other
road at the junction, toward Yulhuitz Grande, but the road ended
at a spot overlooking Yulhuitz Grande. We opened 3 small bromeliads
along the road in a disturbed area of forest and got a small B. ruferosens.
