Oct. 16 Oaxaca to meet Ted Papenfuss. He was
to arrive at 11:30 A., but he wasn't
on the plane. Left Oaxaca at 12:20 P.
and drove southwest on Hwy. Hwy. 131 toward
Dola de Vega and Pto. Escandido. From
Dola de Vega we took a dirt road which
was in very bad shape. We went up
in elevation and collected at the top
of the pass. We collected two Psuedosympan,
one Iberius, and a couple of skinkies at
Station # 1 at the pass. P. Cavoti and
the Iberius were found in a wall of mud
under rocks. The other Baend. was P.
At a lower site, Station #2, Steve found
a Bolitiglossa maringi in a limestone
cliff along the road. Thus we got four
specimens for the day:
(1) Iberius -
(2) Bolitiglossa marini - dark, black,
dively, webbed rear feet, long legs.
(3) P. cavoti - yellow dorsal tail, letlago;
hind foot somewhat webbed.
(4) P. _______ - small, dark with shirl.
The collecting sites were ~ 2.5 hrs. from
Oaxaca. We picked Ted up at the airport
at 8:00 P. He had had a hell of a day
with mixed up flights. We ate supper in
