Paul DeBenedictis 1961 Jan 4 memories and recollections - Mexican trip (Dec 18) fly quite nervously when annoyed. The patch I got was the only I saw. The larger butterfly did not come out until about an hour after I got up. I saw and heard a few Cnemidophorus in the bushes when we left. We dropped the handle to Tony's net and stopped by a knott where I saw a "butterfly with transparent wings". It was almost certainly a Myscales. We went back to get the handle and collected there. Some big orange butterfly (we got 2) kept flying by, but we couldn't get many. I saw a few black bocheys here. Most of the animals I got were near or in a wet drainage ditch, easy to get, but I kept missing them. Many of the butterflies flew into the forest when disturbed. The morpho probably was a culico. I don't remem- ber seeing any herpiles here. At Espinol Gray got the names, in Spanish, of most of the animals around. He has been looking very hard for eagles. This morning as we left camp we passed along a main power line. On every second or third pole (tower) perched one to 4 hawks, and Gray stopped for each one. On the lines perched sparrow hawks. We got a Harris and an immature red-tail on the power line, and a great horned owl on the wood poles on the other side of the road. These were all
