Hanken, James 1975 Journal Mexico trip : Cd.Valles -> Puerto de la Zorro 6 May 0700hrs Left the Hotel Valles yesterday at ~9:30 and after a stop at the local ice house, continued S on Mex Hwy 85 towards Tamazunchale. Two Anelytropsis localities lie between Cd. Valles and Tamazunchale and we hope to find some likely habitat and find some. The first stop was the Hotel Corregidora, a few km. S. of Cd. Valles. The hotel is a broad plantation- type estate with large main building and several others adjoining it. Also on the grounds are a large golf course with scattered orange trees, and a small, few-acre section of tropical evergreen forest (banana trees and other lush vegetation). First we worked the drier area alongside the road outside the hotel property. There was abundant dry leaf litter beneath large trees and alongside a rock fence bordering the hotel. The leaf litter was raked then extensively and over objects turned, but no Anelytropsis or other geckos were found. We then worked the small section of forest within the hotel, checked below orange trees on the golf course, and walked along several of the small streams (1-2' wide which course thru the grounds. No Anelytropsis were found, but Sam Sweet found a Thermophis sp. next to a stream
