Paul DeBenedictis 1960 Dec 28 I left del Rio to Tepic, Nayarit, Mexico and I learned it is possible to blow up an air mattress while you are lying on it. After Elvey started his usual morning fire, I got up and relaxed my self. After breakfast gobs of sausages - I went butterfly collecting and got a few Enemias. and blues. Then I went down to the stream to look for frogs, relaxed my self again, but get nothing. Teddy got an Anolis under a rock. Then I got a small Sceloporus. Finally while walking along the stream I caught 2 frogs, Rana pipiens, and trying to catch one for Gene, I scared out what looked like a R. pushlossa, but couldn't get it. Just before we left I got a satyr, a pair of amynomes, and a Stymos?m-album, and saw a few others. I missed a beautiful Papilio. About 7 miles further down we stopped by Teddy. He had got some odd Eleuthro- ductylus, and I wanted to try my luck. (He also got a Masticophis). I got a string azure & saw another S. m-album. Gene got a Hyle exima and Gary got a Sceloporus. In the stream I saw a couple of Eleuthrodectylus, and Elvey and I each got a large amphibian egg mass and some tad poles. We also got many aquatic insects. We stopped at a little town for coals and went on to find the pine forest. We missed it. In Tepic Gary got a certificate for the parrots and we got some "agua purificada,"
