Janito, Dean 2009 Journal Finca Chicxcanan, on road from Malambojoch to Rio Seco, Depto. Huehuetenango, Guatemala (tent.) Jan. 7 ... drove on to the aldea of Chaquenal and learned that most of this forest is owned by a private finca, Finca Chicxcanan, owned by a man named Salomon Nieto in Huehue. The rest of the forest belongs to the community of Nuevo Triunfo, past Chaquenal. We spoke to the manager of the finca, who gave us permission to work there this morning. We put in 5 small buckets (maybe 1.5-2L) on a trail 10.3km (rd) from Malambojoch-, and then started searching in bromeliads and logs. We began searching around 10:00 or 10:30 and I quickly found a small hyliid with tan dorsal coloration, yellow legs and black spots on the side, but it escaped out of my hand.

These might be B. stuarti, or just B. rufescens; they were found in bromeliads. Carlos got a big B. lineri in a bromeliad; it has a mostly continuous red band on the dorsum, more like the ones we got in Nebaj in 2005 than those from San Marcos, which have more broken red coloration. I opened a fair number of logs and, to my surprise, found an adult Brachytitan silvia inside a small rotten log. It's very exciting to have found this salamander, and this extends its range beyond just Finca Chiblac. We searched here until about 14:08. Jacinto get 2 juvenile Bolitoglossa that are brown with separate toes and may be B. cuachumatana. We drove on; took the road to Chaquenal and stopped in some liquidamber forest 0.4km from the Malambojoch- Rio Seco road. We searched in bromeliads for about an hour and get a dark colored salamander that I would tentatively call
