as illustrated in the 1973 paper by Wallman, Wake,

(were called rachi?) with brown dorsal yellow

2210 m (on ground partially cut over by road through
old forest), 2500 m (on ground in cut-over area grown
to thickets), and 2450 m (along road through intact
forest). One snake ( ) was found inside
a rolling log in a small cleared area at 2645 m.
In addition, seven Anolis were collected for us
at around ~ 2200 m. By a local boy, Jose Manuel
Fernandez (see below).

rain began by 11 AM. For the rest of the day there

rain. The ground and forest everywhere was wet,
