Panama & Boquete area
Hotel Panamonte, Boquete, Chiriqui Province, Chiriqui
18 August thing I was able to ascertain is that they journeyed
near the Rio Caldera for a distance; I was
unable to find out from what northern city in
Chiriqui they left.
Last night I took the road NW from Boquete
to [illegible]
Last night I went to the Quebrado El
Velo - 5th & 4th km of Boquete where the
road NW out of Boquete crosses the stream and
the area which Jim Lynch and I worked for salamanders
on 10 August. Here a trail passes from the river
stream level up the NE canyon wall going through
virgin forest to the coffee finca above on the
level area above. Using a flashlight I
was unable to locate any salamanders on leaves,
twigs, or logs neither in the forest nor coffee finca.
Returning to the road via the stream bed
I collected one Andrias p. found inactive on a
leaf i'above stream level at water's edge.
at 1650 m. As the road into the area was
muddy from the day's heavy rains I had to
walk in and back about 1 mile each way.
Time of observation was ~2½ hrs beginning
at ~2 hrs. after sunset.
