Danda, D. 1982 Journal Mexico Dept. 2 We then continued W on 120 into the state of Queretaro, 3.4 km. SW of El Madriño. Here we had found scincidae in a previous trip (see 28 Oct. 1981). We only went into one thither because we both felt pretty shitty. I was recovering from the night life, but Dan was just getting sick—very sick. We rested for a couple of hours in the locana with the local dog as Dan puked and snot. All because of Fred's beans!!! No salamanders in the scincidae, and none under the cover. It seemed pretty dry. We headed back to the Cueva de la Patronillo to check again. It is believed that the magnipes may become active at dusk. We found one more magnipes in the dirt cave—this one a bit smaller. Again very near the entrance and dancing upside down from a smooth, dry area. Are magnipes on some weird circadian rhythm? Why near the cave mouth? We returned to Tamazulapola to recover from the day and our sickness.
