Hunts, Dean 2013 Journal High point on road from Tapalapa to Copilla, Chiapas, Mexico (cat.) Aug. 23 ... chance of salamanders. Saw 1 cepidophrys in a rock hut couldn't get it out. One had multiple passages; she took the main one to a point where a stream entered from above & completely filled the passage w/ water. Saw a few huts, Hector scared a Desmodon out of the cave, put a net across the entrance and caught it on its way back in. We went back to camp and prepared some specimens. It started raining around 20:00. We drove down to the trail where we found the Cryptotriton yesterday & searched in a moderate rain from 21:50 - 23:40; rain became lighter and stopped around 22:30. I got a B. occidentalis, a B. hartwegi, and a Desmognathus chelewski and they got a Plethodon sp (heard many more), plus a Desmognathus calling [I think]. Drove back to camp & searched from 00:10 - 02:05 along the trail through the cloud forest. Omar + Jorge found a Tropidocrynes [illegible] on the trail. Jorge got 2 Bolitoglossa and I got another 3; all but 1 were climbing on vegetation, and the other was on the trail. Having seen B. hartwegi (I think) earlier in the evening, I think these are a different species. In addition to the orange ventral markings, they are larger and have huge, very webbed feet w/ distinct triangular toes. The males have an enormous mental gland that covers about 1/3 of the gular region. If this is a new species, it probably has a very restricted distribution; not many mountains >2000m in this part of Chiapas. Aug. 24 Spent much of day preparing specimens; salamanders took forever to die in chlorozone for some reason. At 18:30, walked down into forest to see it by day. One of best-preserved forests I've seen in Mexico - no apparent logging, many huge trees. Lots of Lobocarpus, along w/ other broadleaf
