Lake Omega, zoo; left St. San Miguel, El Salvador Feb. 1, 1942 # 12 shot at very close range. Seemed to have fa- ralyzed its hind legs, but when shaken out of the tree, the lizard showed plenty of speed in crawling into the water, where it escaped. The behavior pattern of these animals is strange. Most of the iguanas encountered today were very wary, either running into the Mimosa tree along the river bank, or climbing trees. When I went under a tree where iguanas were fer- ed, they frequently dove into the water from a height of 15 or 20 feet. Yet this individual sat quite still and let me shoot it 100 or 12 times without trying to escape. It moved only when pursued up the tree and out along the branch by Gealey, and then ran swiftly down vines leading from the branch to the river bank. It was bleeding profusely, I was well hit. Stinton brought in 2 of the very common brown- headed lizards (1140-1). They are the commonest lizard here, and are found everywhere, but less frequently in the dense forest. Feb. 2, 1942 In a.m. went along the creek, 5 of camp. Several of the trees along the creek have inflorescences on them and seem to attract numerous hummingbirds, although they do not seem to feed much on the flowers :
