Ronto, Dean 2010 Journal July 6 Cordoba area, Veracruz, Mexico cl left DF around 5:30AM and drove to Fortin de las Flores. Stopped at some house in Fortin Niego where cl searched before and looked under logs and rocks for about an hour (~09:00-10:00). Found 2 colubrid snakes (Hoplia semidolatus), 1 under a rock and 1 under a palm frond; didn't search for B. rufescens in bananas. Drove E out of Cordoba to Potrero Niego and asked around for Hacienda El Fierro; no one knew it, but there are lots of old, ruined buildings in the area. cl drove N from Paraje Nuevo to the macimiento del Rio Atayac, down a side road from the main Paraje-La Chica road that ends [illegible] at the maciminto. This area has tons of limestone and some parts have good forest. cl searched from 14:45- 16:00 but found only Baeo galliceps (saw 3, kept 1). cl then walked up a trail through the forest to a steep hillside with lots of limestone outcrops and searched in cracks with a flashlight from 17:00-19:30 in a moderately heavy rain. Saw only 2 more B. galliceps and 1 B. marinus. Seems like some salamander should live in all this limestone. Wanted to search at night but was exhausted; got a room in Fortin.

Spent all day waiting for to be fixed, and the power steering no longer worked once the mechanic replaced the part; had to spend another night in Fortin. During the wait, cl searched under palm fronds and stones in a wooded lot across from Hotel Fortin de
