Chilpancingo, Guerrero, met to 1 mi. E of Omitlame, 7400 ft. Guerrero, Met. July 21/1946 June, a distance of some 18 miles. The road was very slick due to the rains of the previous night, and we had to use chains to get through. 9 mi. W. of Chilpancingo, el. 5300 ft., the vegetation was a mixed growth of pines, palmas, mimosa, junipers and oaks. 11½ mi. W. of Chilpancingo, 5900 feet, there was open oak forest with scattered mimosa, juniper and maguey. Palmas were seen in some numbers growing on the rocky, exposed slopes above the oak forest. At Omitlame, 6700 ft., there is a good-sized sawmill and its accompanying collection of workers' houses. We spoke to the mill superintendent, who mentioned a young man and an older man who had collected at Omitlame not so long ago (Leopold + Lamb?). Upon this advice we took the road leading east of town, and made camp 3 mi. E. of Omitlame, 7400 ft., Guerrero, Met. The woods about camp are mostly tall oaks, with scattered pines. Higher up on the slopes above camp the forest is predominantly of pines, and there are fir, or a different type of pine, on the ridge tops. This whole area is the scene of extensive logging operations, and there are evidences of cutting all through the woods. Understory vegetation of scrub oaks, small oaks and shrubs is fairly dense on the slopes.
