held 1 Colomy, 1 Eligios, (Adjacent Trofe), an 1 tail. Drove to San martin do los Andes, than off the Chaleco road 4 or 5 km looking for road slides. Found none, then back to town and up the road to Villa Angostura, about 8 km out of town, saw the first trees-trees diggings along the road: huge mounds of light black block soil. This was soon after the first bamboo, Berberis buxifolia and Vitellispora nearby. at 1 p.m. set 9 trofas at 3 different places, all along the road. Drezgle. The road at this place makes a big loop around a bowl containing a number of recent, sheep trampled tracks. The 4 km S of San Martin. A side road comes in here, which might be the "back" road into town. Checked the three trofas at 6 p.m. (rolling) put 2 more at one of the places, and then set 5 more at two places farther off the road. These two places are at steep road cuts with a couple of feet of black light soil on top of orange-brown leaner soil, all trofas are within a stretch of about 2 km, above the back road to San Martin. A flock of big blue & yellow parrots was feeding on a tree out in steep slope between Junin and San Martin, also parrot (smaller?) at the first little ranchito up the hill above San Martin. April 15. Most of night clear, no frost. Morning clear sky here on the hill. Put two trofas - 3 trees looking

7 Echo mochiler. Chubbs when in the trop, but heard no calling. Then drove down to San Martin for photos, but clouds gathered down below, clearing about 10:30. Then up the hill again to chara trees trofs; nothing. Goats stood on their hind legs and eat rosa mosqueta fruits. Heard barn owl last night. Shinned trees, sunny & warm. April 19 Clear all night, no frost, then clouds began gathering at sunrise. Heard barn owl again. Two mochiler in the trofs. Picked up trofa and drove down into San Martin for gas, about 12 km. The two section of the road (San Martin - Villa Angostura) lies between the first side road back into town and the side road to probably about 300 m above the lake. The Chapaleo ski resort. Saw other troco sleeping on bamboo lines a couple of miles farther south also, a longa hillside that I was photographing in the colony wester, yesterday afternoon & which should just touch of autumn color is this morning spectacular. Instant magic. Then drove south to Bariloche with stops for photos. Day increasingly cloudy, then drizzle + rain starts beginning about 2 p.m., but clear again in Bariloche at 8 p.m. (when it had rained earlier). I have spent some time in so many places waiting in vain for sun to strike large steeper that I am convinced that persistent local cloud cover is part of their requirements.

as you go south, the big cedars appear at Lago Fallowner. The gila bander is a bit north of the Cascada Vulingquan to was loaded with new shoots sticking up above the rest of the clump; a couple of dogger shoots (thiayari) with dry sheaths and no leaves arising one from one clump. April 20. Barilobo. No frost, day mostly sunny. Drove out to the Glen Glen Peninsula and photed old habitats. Much more forest around the Glen Glen Hotel. One cypress below the Hotel Tangueler is still there, out by itself; a dead 2-inch branch in the 1940's photo is still there without change. The hotel is obscured by a grove of Doug fir. The Christie house has a big pine that was cut there in 1940. The other big trees were cut down 2 or 3 years ago. April 21 Barilobo. Morning overcast, afternoon clearing, calm. April 22 " Clear. Went out to the city dump, to the foot of Cano Otto and looked for Roitiro sign. Saw no droppings, numerous holes, lots of taco leggings. April 23 Visit to Glen Glen Peninsula for old photos. Two of the big pine trees at the Christie House, cut down about 2 to 3 yrs ago, had 43 and 46 growth rings (counted by Gene Fowler and Lynn Brand). Original 6 photos, therefore must have been taken > 46 yrs ago. Walked through cattail/calm forest at site of the marked larch clumps. Some clumps have many new shoots, many of which are taller than any of the

other shoots of the clump. Dry sheaths on these shoots but no leaves. In some places on Paths saw large numbers of Cichorium seeds. Sometimes windrows apparently floated by rain into puddles, providing concentration of seeds. The seeds are 3-cornered, like tiny beach- nuts, 5mm long x 3 mm, very light. Even with magnifiers, could not find any "meat". Morning was foggy, afternoon clear and calm. April 25 Carbo Martin says quite a lot of lavender was blooming at Carbo Catalaol a month or two ago, in the thinscrub and near the top of the local road to Catalaol. At 3pm, drove off to Estancia Penta more with Dave Frouler looking for Rattlers. Saw no fresh droppings either at Estancia San Boron, the campsite beyond the lake, or at San Frago. Ended up at the usual campsite a couple of kms east of the lake and set 4 Rattle traps and 13 cage traps. Dense cover but mostly dry. Hear [illegible] owl April 26 Ran traps at 9pm; 1 adult Rattler, 2 babies, 1 also larger size. Traced the Rattler with fluorescent powder or relaxed pins. He ran 2 ft. to another unseen hole and went down it. Ran traps again at 1:30AM, in the 13 cage traps were 5 babies, 4 also large, and 1 Cholamp. No new trails of the Rattler.

at 8:30 a.m., 4 also longi and 4 callicoco. No new trunks of the powdered Rethro. Examined the burrow into which he disappeared; the color disappeared after only a meter or so. In afternoon, drove up to Coro Cathedral to look at allegedly blooming laurels. Lots of scattered clumps that bloomed this year or last; no seeds seen. See species account (after seeds). Note light trap success: 14 sage traps and 4 Rethro traps, run in middle night and at dawn = 22 mice: 1 Rethro, 1 Cholemp, 11 Audiro, 9 also longi, [illegible] (1 audiro near jaw) an also longi in a Rethro trap must have entered from the Rethro burrow. april 27 Barilebo. Seen windhold. Mostly cloudy. Drove up to La Veranda to look at laurels. A scattering of snow at "", more higher up. Saw no blooming laurels. See up, account. Lots of big trunks loaded with firewood, mostly toward Barilebo, plus innumerable decaying pickup trucks, totes, etc. Tomorrow (Sunday) probably will be even more. Collected 3 samples of "quila" bamboo at progressively greater distances from road (the woodcutter's road near our campsite), then 3 samples of the most isolated bamboo in the large forest farther in the ready. Fleurie's genus. Couldn't find Rapaport's house for dinner. Lots of two digging along the road. In the open grassland near the horse farm at La Veranda

ore lots of open holes looking like Raithroder holes, usually near two diggings, but I found no Raithroder clippings. april 28. Baridobo. Cloudy in A.M., then scattered sun, then snow flurries. To Gao. Gao full. Isolated and measured the height of new culms on B1 and B2. Lots of them died before growing more than 3 ft., other culms had the top dead. In the general neighborhood of B1 ad B2 there was not a great production. I saw shoots, and nowhere did we see blooming clumps april 29. Scattered clouds all day; cold, (50° oelength). Drove out to Pampa Huanularo at the foot of Cerro Otto, about 200 yards up the path into the large camp along the stream, are 3 large, dead, adjacent clumps of tall bamboo. The center clump bloomed this year, the other two last year (earlier). No seedlings visible. The center clump produced no seeds. Then drove up to Cerro Cataldo again. Found no other clumps with seed. Then met a lady, Martha Basta and daughter (Diana). The other park guard of Cataldo is Horacio Pelzey, who was at Puerto Bleat last year. Also quoted the Manso notes as saying big fires swept through in 1905 and 1915, and the bamboo bloomed in 1939. Could this be the kind of bamboo that grows in longer forest.

Pearson 1985 12 April 30 Baribo. Day clear all day, light frost. Went out to INTA in the morning. Fairies Bellota working on foxes, Sayo Pilcaninger. Campo Anapo caught their first red bat (culpalus) recently. Gray bat range seems to be about same as Calompa. Rabbit (oryctolagus) had advanced with to about aluminé. fulvetta was just loch from BA, never + adrian also present, at 2 pm drove to SeVeranade. The gorgeous mire + lenga slow. 14 days ago are now mostly brown. Set 8 Batibo trofa at open, gravel holes in gravel at the horse ponds. No Batibo droppings seen, lots of two diggings. Heard orotuco alert 5 pm (Tue - m - tue). Every calm, clear, cold, May 1 Heavy frost. Calor, clear, nothing on trofa. Water fying (outado) half frozen. Returned to Baribebat noon. Went up Carro Otto in afternoon. Many bamboo clumps with numerous and big new shoots. See photos. Our clumps A1 and A2 did not. A1 has about 5 new shoots, now taller than some of the old ones. A2 has only about 3 tall new shoots, barely taller than the old ones. Other clumps nearby have lots of new shoots small taller, One of them has 2 shoots at least 16 ft tall and diameter of 35.4 and 27.5 mm (compare others measured last year), Nearly saw 2 green parrots on the ground under Bamboo/Lenga. Saw no bamboo blooming.

May 2 Michael Christie at 9 to 6:00 (about two M.S), then drove to Paso Punglue to check ribbon sealing landero (reported by Jim Leid). The emigration people held my passport & car papers so I couldn't go into Chile. Drove almost to the Chilean border, well along the landero, at 15.5 km beyond the Rio Totoral (or 17.2 km beyond the abandoned emigration station), then returned to the Cascada Diana, which is 8.7 km beyond the Rio Totoral. Collected 1 of 3 tiny lizards at the higher point, 15.5 km beyond. They were basking on a rotting log in a small sun surrounded by snow. The vegetation was at the interface of 1-inch longa siphliges growing loosely on the red shale, and larger, kepler longer, understory Drimypa. Are begin to see blooming farnelar fruit beyond the adavana, but nowhere at speed 1% of the plants I examined maybe a dozen flowering plants (this year), and I don't think any of them had seeds. On some of the plants, the new shoots had bloomed and had produced 36 or so seed heads at cool node - but no leaves. Perhaps a way of telling ahead of time if the plant is going to bloom? Comfort is dry cithus/longa with cithus sophlige along the road and dense landero under- story. Put 8 cage traps and camp (lista 1

rolling legs everywhere; alternated 15 Sherwood and 15 MS toward Chile plus 8 more MS, and then 9 Sherwood and 9 MS towards Argentina. The linea touch only two flowering clumps. Evening calm, mild, full moon. May 3 night calm, clear, heavy frost. The 64 traps caught 14 Aba longi, 3 Antiscamps, and 1 Orygopus. The aba longis seems big and long-tailed. Set their accounts. Saved Shulla. Heard hummingbird long before sun reached frosty campsite. Have seen a few hummingbird flowers on holly-leaved buck = Dodecandra bracteata. Drove over to Lengua Pass and 5 km down into Chile until the bamboo had reappeared. Saw only one flowering clump and at mostly or entirely sterile. Lots of snow across the pass. Saw several more tiny lights and one red. Sigh not clear one on top in the snow. Stopped to shin in this thicker-dropped longa level close to bamboo. Pavote in floor spent time in the longa, perhaps eating berries on the smooth-leaved with flower = Pringia. Clouded up about 3 p.m. Returned to camp at Cascada Diora again. Traps during day had caught 2 aba longi. a couple of hundred yards west, where the Rio Peregrino crosses under the road, I found a dead Dromiceia curled up on the path. Very light,

15 [illegible] may 4 Cascada Diana, night hazy - cloudy but full moon, lee. flashlights at 3:30 a.m. but saw nothing. Traps (same 2 lines) at 9:00 had 1 Culico, 3 abo longi, and 1 Battus, nearest hut about 4 km. I wonder if Battus and Battus might not become the greatest beneficiaries of a bamboo seeding? Day sunny but cool, returned to Barilab at 4 p.m. The Paso Pompline bamboo seems to have as many scattered flowering plants as I have seen anywhere, but speed more [illegible] may 5 Sunny in AM but mostly cloudy by noon, yellow sockets, still coming to shuck on the balcony. Drove up to Colalao to photo bamboo. Found no more seeds may 6 Barilab. Clear, calm, heavy frost. Cecilia Dirigente is now Director of the Municipal Museum. Adrian Monjean came by bringing Jose Garrido, who has been studying quinones at the Centro Nacional Patagonico in Puerto Madryn (28 de junio-28) 9120 x He has been ageing [illegible] shucks, putting new shucks out on the steps to see how fast they mother, etc. Young ones (chulengas) disappear very soon. He knew all about Nueva Buelecha, and Estancia Don Guillermo west of there (managed by Sr. Juan Troyput). Golter Javier Perez Calvo, [illegible], ad. Gabriel Zofardo came by to arrange Javier's "prelim" stand date (Tribunal). may 7 Barilab. clear all day. Visited the young director of the

museum, Cecilia Girgenti, escorted by Adam Haydube, who paints in front of the museum. She's reorganizing the exhibits. Adam has been working on Indian cave material from La Victoria and it contains tuco-tucos and maybe bats. Adrian Moya has the skulls for identification. Adam also says there was a layer of tuco-tuco bone in another case in the safety quarter (would have to Tropical). Went out to Data and saw Valverde (Sr y Sra), Julietta, the old girl (who says the old demolished the forest (cigars, model, etc.) on Estancia Huenul last winter). May 8 To Puerto Blest where I collected 20 bamboo samples, 10 from Cantarana and 10 from the road to Fresia. Great view of a torrent down from one of the Cascada view sites. No new info on breeding of cats. The bartender in Guillermino Tea and info dry. He had a sample of blooming coca from between Sago Cantarana and Sago Basurdo. While talking to them the launch left without me (but was waved back again). May 9 Briboska. Sunny all day. Javier Perez Calvo's Licenciado thesis down in the morning. May 10 Added the Prometeo to the exhibit at the Municipal Museum. Dathold and pelloto of Cerro Sena. Saw no owl.

The SE end of the live gate scrubby and with a non-beard grass, Horse & cows were grazing there without left, While setting up by the cliff, a man + two kids came past with sacks, looking for firewood ? Their 2 dogs scared up a hare and chased it. They overlooked another one. Parent Brenda came by in the evening. May 12 Moving drizzly. A Pan trofe at dawn. May 10 Coyote trofe had 5 Phyllotie and 1 also longi. The 26 Museum specimens had 11 also fauntho, 2 Oryzomya, and 1 also longi x No Audiosomph, no Elequedon. The 26 Sherman had 7 also fauntho, 1 also longi, and 1 Oryza. The SE end of the live had almost nothing. Summary: The 62 trofe had 18 also fauntho, 5 Phyllotie, 3 Oryzomya, 3 also longi = 29 mice. Javier Perez Calvo saved the digestiv tracts. May 13 Drizzle, Baridos. Patricia brought in Culo pelleta from under the column at Fortun Chacabuco. 44 manuels of 11 species including a few wild marsupial and Eumysopa. No tucos. The hair in these pelleta was much more digested? felled? than in the pelleta from Cavo Seone, May 14 Barilobo. Sunny, windy, no frost. Went to Cavo Seone again.

Carroll + Confluencia had Eumeauna, a Cholemya, some tucos, Sertedelphus. Dermal bones of maybodon from Arroyo Carroll. may 15. Barilelo mostly cloudy, very windy (75 km). Left At 10 for Pilsingen with Adam Morijian and Felipe Valverde. Set out a grid in the mollen at Canadon Bonito, partly in the lower exposure and partly in Stoppes on the north side of the exposure. The marsh vegetation not at all green. Also set 15 cage traps baited with sardines on Barclay Knoll at Canadon Bonito and 30 Sherman's in a line along the slope south of the exposure. This slope is much lusher, more rich than the north slope. The south side has lots of Stillingia, Odosinia. at 2 to 6 Pm put out a grid 11 x 16 with 10-m spacing = 176 Sherman's. Approx 5/8 in the grassy mollen exposure and the rest on the north slope. Felipe ad Adam set the traps quite before dark. I put 15 cage traps baited with sardines on the really level. Raining + windy by 6; moved to evening. may 16 Night cleared up and wind dropped. Morning sunny. Total catch on grid: 2 also 4 north in the mollen and 1 outside, 5 longipelia and 1 dulissiumys.

21 trape were not towed, and the 30 Bhamore in the bushy steppes with lots of Stillingia had only one Rutherford (adult). Have heard no tucan. Adrian quotes a 90-yrs-old lady forester saying that this whole area used to be covered with noble trees, a small thorny tree with seed/barries, but that they were all harvested for firewood. There seem to be a few scattered ones left here at Gairaden Bonte, plus a few dense patches of barberry. Have seen hare numerous old Rhea dropping (poor or never reads), but no Rhea, and no huancacos. Found shunda shund. On the afternoon chase of the grid, found 2 choloquies, total repeats of 10m, and 1 new who followed in the steppes. Nothing in my steppes line. Walked up the valley to the rocks. Rich Stillingia. 36 Adrian + Talbert put 40 Bhamore in Stillingia etc in a line with concentration around dense clumps of trees. Evening clear. may 17 morning clear, time fine, soon clouded up. My line in steppes had 18 15g who pantha and 2 Eligino (22g parous q, 22.5g 8). Their line of 36 traffics had about 3 Eligino and 2 pantho x. The grid had an Eligino and pantha in the steppes, plus reception of longi and Andriarange in the smaller plus maybe 2 new longis. Left at 1:30, leaving Adrian, driving fly. On the way out to the main road saw one flock of rheas: a few adults and maybe 8 to 10 half-grown. Had seen no

Bamboo April 21 Baribocks, Weight & length of bamboo after drying since last December (compare with notes then): from Caro Otto: Angeluit, 4/21/85 # 1 40 g. 15 1/2 2 32 20 1/2 3 57 22.0 4 52 20.0 5 36? 22.0 6 50 31.0 267g 131g April 26 Drew & Caro Cataldo with Sam Fowler, to investigate flowering reported by Carlos Martin. Some dozens of clemfis bloomed this year or last in the field/ barrow scrub between the Parking lot and Soap Gathering (at numerous places in the first couple of km). As on the road to Sam Martin, many of the clemfis have this-year shoots and many of these project far above the existing culms. Some new culms were 13 ft tall with the old culms about 8 ft. Some clemfis that had flowered this year still had some green color, and leaves, whereas others flowered this year more completely dead, straw-colored. Others grey, probably last year or earlier. Could find no seeds; the seed heads all seem to be empty. Correction: on one culm brought home, still green, about 2 to 3 of the "flowers" contain seeds. The seeds are elongate, slightly pointed at both

end, with a longitudinal crease, 1.9 x 6.2 mm, 1.7 x 5.1. They look like small wheat grains. April 27. Campsite above La Varanada. Light snow on everything, no bloom or seeds. Lots of clumps with tall new shoots covered with sheaths, only a couple of leaves at top. Other new shoots with a few side leaves. Frequently, the new shoots are taller than any of the old shoots, even 3 ft. taller. But many clumps have no, or few, new shoots reaching above the old. Couldn't find our measured clump; plotted what may be it, but no tags; at least 20 healthy new shoots, started sprouting. Collected 3 smaller specimens of the small kind on the r. bank side of the road-cutter, near 5 your campsite (but across the road), and 3 specimens of big cana in the Langa farther in the road. Horses grazing near camp. April 29 Abel Basti quotes several sugareños of the Rio Manso area as saying that cava do not like the kind of bamboo that grows in large forests (or, at least) the large forests of the Manso zone. May 8 Collected samples from 4 places of Puerto Blast (see catalog). Was hoping to get ch. argentine in the Cantara sample, but it may have collected too high up the slope. The lower elevation plants are smaller and spindlier. Walked back from Cantara to Blast, but only a few flowered plants. The big one in the camping meadow is conspicuous, but has very few if

Tip of the marked first-year cane on clump D1 had basal diameters of 24.7, 22.5, 26.1, 21.3, 21.6, 26.0 mm. may 21 Collection beginning at the sharp curve in the Cataldo- Gatineau road under the culvert, then going downhill (doubled back) and collecting on left side of road. Tagged & collected early easily-accessible clump. Numbers 85-A to 85-Z and 85-AA to ± 85-FF. 85-Z in under a culvert, and others ends under another culvert. Seaces were frozen in refig in apartment, others in styrofoam cot to BA, then driven to Obinda on may 22-23.

Stayed with Clark & Rose's Warren. Drove a half-hour east or northwest to a "Park" called Los Arrayanes and climbed around for a half-hour in staid rocky country with streams looking for degrees, but saw nothing such. A desertly aromatic shrub in bloom; a gorgeous big broom with a tall spiky and curious blue/green/scarlet many blossoms. Oct. 18. Guided tour of city + museums. Left on train at 6:30. Alfalfa in bloom, masses of California Poppies. Oct. 19 arrived Osorno 11 a.m., just caught last bus to Bariloche. Only a few patches of snow over the Pase (Boyehue). The lenga up high not leafed out yet. Not many dead bamboo. Reached Bariloche about 6 p.m. Oct. 20 Drizzly, occasional suns. Tulips in bloom, a few Scotch broom, Lombardy poplars just looking out. Drove up Cerro Otto to the Bamboo Clumps; they haven't started growing yet, no signs of blossoms, brought snow dead or damaged stalks roses to look for parasites (see specimen account), found no earth cores; maybe because of very little snow this winter.

46 Oct.21 Clear + mild all day, Everyone says a very mild winter, and spring. Drove up the back road to Cero Cathedral. The gully down from the road, where I took a color photo last may, looked exactly same; same yearling culms not yet leafed out. Saw 2 clumps with dark dull purple flowers between them and the pavement, and another one in the rive scrub above the road within, right of the ski parking lot. Collected a sprig from this and put it in water; flowers not yet open, but presumably the buds were dormant over winter. Park Guard Basti and Martha new in BA; invited with P.G., Horacio Peloso and friend. nothing new on the bamboo scene, according to him. Visited Isabel Gallopin at the Fundacion Bariloch (as Rapoport). She had some flowered culms that Sigfrido Paluhu had brought in, but they contained no seeds. The bamboo seeds that I had given her did not sprout. Oct.22 To Glao Glao well and Isabel Gallopin.

Michael says very apple winter, with very little snow but plenty of rain at 5:30 drove out to Temo Gorge and collected lots of pellets in both the good crevices, then set traps along the slope between the cliff and the road. I put 42 traps, alternating 11S and Big Sherman, near the cliff, and Anita put 60, alternating across the flats. Setting was delayed by 2 boys who were curious and ended up with them "helping" me set my line. They knew about the rules and depended the corn-seed weasels they made.

She says the flowers are early in her garden (such as tulips were past by the time of the annual Tulip Festival), and other flowers almost gone for today's spring flower show in SCUM. She says the winter and spring have been dry (unlike Christie's comment that there was rain instead of snow). 028.26 Sept 11 a.m. for La Veracruz. Hardly any Berberis darwinii blooming along was scarcely, not beginning yet. The trees at the campsite at La Veracruz is not blooming yet; some bushes leafed out but too bigger trees mostly barely started to leaf out. Dandelions not blooming. Checked out the seasonal location Clump El - exactly the same as my photo last way, with lots of yearling canards, no new shoots yet. Then chose another clump on the east side of the road, 55 yards NE of our campfire, and started counting and measuring. It. None of the bamboo here is blooming, never have seen bloom here. But about 8 cage traps in the fire/ screbling bamboo where there were enough to have taco burrows; 5 p.m. Beautiful light soil, brown, numerous lots of dust.

While snooping around we were approached by José Celestino Arriola, a 66-yr old Campesino, champion ape man. He was born in the north, moved when going to Rio Mauco, then to Baridobo. He knew Herenchupan. He remembers the "1928 or 1929" flowering of the bamboo (in Mauco, I think) as well

as the 1932 Volcanic ash fell that killed a lot of cows. He described vividly mice jumping off the cana or bushes onto your shoulders and down your shirt, the big native trout dying with mouse-bair-balls in their stomachs. His description of the mouse sounded Oryzomys. He also marked white rats as white as white rabbits. He said the cana gets bigger every year, showed me a couple of shrumps with creatures dying from unknown causes, and was familiar with the big shrump that flowered and died last year; no seeds. He knew the right shape of the seeds (much smaller than wheat). He was not familiar with Rattler; showed us under a tree bed ruffles off Mexican stems. Sometimes cows rest under the cana, and that they sing late in the afternoon and early morning. He said that the tops of longas and vines are killed by a "gusano" and that the gusano migrates seasonally down through the tremble. He showed me a wild current bark and said that an infusion of the leaves cured itching; an infusion of roots rooted wild strawberry cured difficult parturition in cows; and an infusion of Badal Bark was used for dyeing wool brown. He said that bamboo was being cut on Cavo Otto for shipment to Buenos Aires. Just after he left us (!) a large truck miles high with long cana drove out the dirt road.

Peña says the dead tops of the lenga trees is caused by a Cerambycid beetle, probably a very colorful one Cheroderus [illegible], type locality Chile near the Argentine border. The female migrates down the trunk. He also says that the cruising colorful wasps are molder looking for females, who are in the ground. A ball of molder forms when they find her. The black beetle [illegible] feed on the bamboo leaf. A Carlos Otto's leather log is a Cucuclid (??), little known of its life history. His 2 assistants collected a quart of the big black desert beetles on the top of Carlos Otto, when we picniced. nov.5 Davirolle

Mr. Marful, the owner of this property, came by at 7:30 and invited us for tea at his home ½ hour west (between our camp and the Sage Pinto mines). We returned at dusk (9:30) and checked traps and jacklighted. Traps held only 2 aulico, 1 abdon longi, and 1 Reithra, and we saw only 3 or 4 Reithra, one of them quite close. Morning, no wind, clear sky. During the late afternoon Anita was poking her finger into a freshly excavated small burrow and felt a mouse; it was a Geopu. In dense grass (brush) such as Sarcia in the overgrazed railroad right-of- way. Nov. 13 Traps held 5 Reithras (one a receptacle), and assorted sized aulico and smallish abdon longi. Total catch for the 39 traps from late yesterday afternoon to this morning (picked up traps): 6 Reithra, 8 aulico, 5 abdon longi, and 1 Geopu. all traps were set in runway, tunnel, or at barrow openings. Certain traps caught a series of animals, not always same species. No doubt that Reithra, aulico, and abdon longi were all using the same burrows. We caught nothing in the tunnel from which the trees was harvested yesterday. We

Heard barn owl at 10 pm last night, and California Quail both mornings. Sr. Marful says the snowy winter of 1983/84 killed almost all quail. Ceranaco came down into his front yard during the snows. He says the little gray fox has only just arrived in this region and that it probably attacks quail. No martina tianarone, he says, but that they used to be there. There is the remains of a brick-making operation in the woods near our trofes. Marful says they used chacay wood for fuel and that it used to be much more abundant.

By sunset, 2 also longi in steel traps (8:45 p.m. at 10:40 p.m. (half moon, cloudy) 2 more also longi, 1 achilisomp, and 1 Rattledar alive and 2 dead. nov. 20 10 km NNE Nahuel Huapi. Morning Cloudy / foggy. Traps west of road held 1 also pantla, 3 also longi, 1 Ctenomys socialis, 2 Oryzomys, and 1 Rattler. Traps east of road held 1 also longi and 1 Andicomp. Total for the 28 traps was : 3 andicos, 1 Ctenomys, 1 also pantla, 7 also longi, 2 Oryzomys, and 4 Rattledar = £ 18. about an hour with the night vision goggles I saw nothing (except low-flying moths). Running the truffle line with flashlight saw nothing. The only evidence of the tucas was a few old barroco plugged deep inside with cut grass stone. The Ctenomys socialis was a lactating female.

Frederico Beehia and his father Juan Beehia, both Photographe, came to visit. Dandelion on Otto all gone to seed. nov.21 To Goo Goo with [illegible] Gallopin to measure bamboo, Sets of new shoots, a small slug on one of them but it had not eaten it. In afternoon to Carr Cathedral. Took along the May photo with the two pink bamboo shoots; they had grown a meter each since then x saw two colisee with big blue - lilies at that bamboo spot, have seen only a couple of other trees with blue bloss in the month we have been here creaming around. Then visited all the Bastle Cathedral. Warm and sunny. Scotch Brown ramfais. nov 22 Barilede, Hot + sunny.

midnight Nov.24, San Pawan, morning clear, warm, my 18 Sherman on Brooklyn E-spring slope, a few small Rosas + Berberis, caught 4 abdonants, 1 also longi, 3 audisco, my 4 solo trofs caught 1 also longi. Antua's 13 cage trofs caught 1 big Rattler, 1 also longi, 1 audisco. The 50 to 70 Vultures (mostly black, a few Turkey) that came in to roost in a couple of trees near camp until almost dark left early and at least some of them landed at the edge of the artificial lake. The black vultures seem to have left the roost earlier than the Turkey Vultures. Found about 20 pearl pottato and a barn owl feather at the base of the cliff east of camp. Heard barn owl numerous times during the night. Coward and his Australian wife visited us in camp. A spotted wild cat catches her chickens. He says cougars don't land near the rural buildings. Then we visited with Arturo Pöllike on our way out. They have planted a lot more cornflowers on the hill west of our campsite but need rain for them. Both Coward and Arturo complained of the extreme heat of the past several days, 32°C yesterday. Broto compact 11, my trofs had one more also longi Total coted: 1 Rattler, 4 abo shantha, 4 abo longi, 4 audisco, 1 chelempy. Below the cool roots were mummies of

Pearson 1985 68 1 Oryzomys and I also long. The Acacia climbers are in full flower, some of them visited by ants. The rosa mosqueta along the hole is just beginning to bloom. Heard two tucos from our tent early in the morning and a third was later in the big meadows, all were 3-ported "tucatas", move with terminal trill. mar.25 Bariloche. Sunny calm, not quite so many. Shifted mice to Río, two-two to the Buenos Aires Museum. Dinner with Tom Vallen, Diana Lorenz, and David ... , an Australian forestry officer from Melbourne. Vallen is staying at Villa Pañil, beyond Lago Trebol, in a beautiful cedrus forest. Villa Pañil seems to be managed or owned by the botanist Bruno Pultrachi, whom we met. He was working in his garden full of native and exotic flowers. They were all about to go to a piece of vacant, ungrazed forest full of Chilean species of plants, beyond Villa Ongostera on the way to Paso Puyehue. mar.26 Bariloche. Sunny warm. Drove out to the Estriero at Pampa de 4 menules at 8 PM. Camped amid Patillo holes, dacica, scattered clumps of Berberis, Rosa, etc. Wassentler camped at the head of the Pater where it enters the woods. José came to check us out. He did not distinguish between tucos, lagos & Patillo holes and did not recognize Patillo

Pearson 1985 69 Droffings. He cleared this patrone 30 years ago and dug out the bamboo rhizomes. Then it burned in 1951. The woodcutter now are taking all kinds of wood for firewood, plus bamboo canes, and headlight Hunted with the Night Vision Goggles, from dark (9:45) until 11:45 and saw only one hare, no mouse of any kind. Concentrated on 3 or 4 clusters of holes with good Raittro Droffings. Full moon. Set up at 3:45 and NVG around the Raittro area and then about 400 m off the road. Saw one hare. Moon set 4:40, sky in east was just beginning to lighten. Back to bed 4:50. mar.27 Sept 3:30 p.m. for Raitro Moreno. Weather sunny, hot. Checked in with Sr. Marful, owner of Estacion Sa Francesa, who let us camp along the stream (between the RR and the stream). This is maybe 200 m, downstream from our usual campsite listed as 2 km E Estacion Raitro Moreno. We swooped around for Raittro sign, then set traps, 12 cage traps and 2 steel traps, almost all in big runways (bare ring) at the edge of Raittro Berbina/Chacay clumps; lots of droffings. Set 4 hole traps and 3 steel traps and 2 cage traps, all at Raittro-like or runways. Horned owl calling long before dusk and frequently thereafter. A few Condors came in before dusk. Heard no barn owls, maybe a screaowl. Observed with NVGs until midnight; see Raittro species account. Moon slightly past full.

Pearson 1985 70 Vso.28 Rain trafoe dusk, midnight, and 8 a.m., Aunta's 14 trafoe, several of them set in pairs facing opposite direction in rummoy, caught 3 Reithro, 1 chelomy, 1 Audisiump, 10 also longi, and 7 Argygoumpa = 22 miles. Plus 3 spring-safety cage trafoe [we saw a big Reithro Dashlina may out of love]. My 10 trafoe caught 2 big Reithros and 2 also longi. Total 24 trafoe 26 miles. no also tantholhmin or Elapodonta. Tagged and released one of the Reithro, a big 9 with open woogra, left ear #302, clifed for on bar forbod. With NVGA from 9:50 pm to 11:40, with full moon from 10:40 on, saw 3 Reithros, two only briefly, and one we followed for 30 minutes. Then at 3:50 I went out again, clear, calm, cold, saw another briefly at 3:55, then followed another from 4:00 to 4:31, and another from 4:45 to 5:24. One or more others passed near this concealed place watching, hence a total of 7 or more individuals. The last one was still feeding when the morning bird chorus started. Saw a haro a couple of trees, no other mice! Light frost. After breakfast we retraced the route of the Ostrand river. See Reithro species account. Found a probable Caracola nest, a bulky twig nest in an almost-dead chacay tree, off about 15 ft. A downy, huge offspring was visible in the nest, and two mottled adults perched on a phone pole and crooked at me. House at 11:30, Sunny warm,

71 nov.29 Baridos. Sunny, warm. nov.30 It occured to me sometime ago that change of Eunomys from most abundant (in Cueva Trafal) to rarest, would all make sense if it was an animal of open stoney areas such as the cigarra groves, some of the hilltops. Our single capture of Eunomys so far has been in stoney places at Corrallo. Some drove to San Ramon, stopping at a smifty cigarra stand at the first summit, part of it almost 1/20 cigarra and big bushes of palo pichi, lots of droppings of Rattlro and others; grass under the trees. Then we stopped at the second summit (between the Est. San Ramon entrance and Estacion Panto Mirador). Anita set trophs on the south side of the road (29 MS and 6 steel) and I set trophs on the north side (about 18 Sherman, 15 MS, 10 coagtrophs, and 7 steel trophs. She had cigarra, palo pichi, espinia negra, etc.; I had cigarra, notro, Berberis, etc., little espinia negra and little of any palo pichi. We both saw Rattlro droppings and another vegetable dropping similar to Rattlro; pole, best rounded at both ends. Lots of insects (especially) Rattlro) trophs & droppings on the way up to any point from there. Then at 9:30 p.m., we drove into Est. San Ramon and hunted Rattlros with the NVAs. Evening merry, somewhat hazy, moon came up about midnight. Picked up one Rattlro at dusk and followed him

for 2½ hours. Got up at 3:45, found and followed 2 others, put one of them to bed long after dawn. Dec.1 Morning mostly clear, scarce. Rafters at 7:00, after stopping last night’s Rattles activity. Canta’s box had 2 adult & 8 Eligmodonta, 1 ad & Plagiolepis, 1 egg & Euniceumpe, 1 egg Rattles, 3 also Long’s, and 5 eggs to old Euniceumpe. 13 mice of 6 species — including Euniceumpe, x my traps had 1 adult Rattles (right up in the bare-ground cipres), 8 cavies, 1 also Long’s, and 2 Crypsumpe x 12 mice of 4 species x Heard barn owl several times during the night. The condors were off high long before sunrise. The wutwara no longer in the trees at San Ramon. Note that the composition of the cipres balls is not unlikely that of Cueva Traful. The retreating glacier may have left a lot of bare rocky gravelly soil being recorded by cipres x Note also absence of also Rattles in our catch, Back to Bariloche by 10:30 a.m. Dec.2 Put cipres twigs and branches into cages with Euniceumpe and with Crypsumpe (plus apples and dog food and green grass). The Euniceumpe struffed bark from small twigs 2 mm in diam. but not from larger ones up to 10 mm, which is the size I remember being gnawed at our camp across the river from Cueva Traful. Numerous green branches

30 to 80 mm long lying around the cage. The Oryzomys didn't touch theirs. Barebodo, Serrano warm. Visited by Michael Christie and grad student from Minnesota. Brewer, then by Hilda, then by Adrian and Lucy Moujean. Left at 6:30 to put traps at the first summit east of Cero Línea. Weather turns cooler and windy. Set out 9 cage traps, 17 Sherman, 17 Muenzer, and 10 steel traps. Total 53. Two of them around two old old blown-over but still thriving cypress with green grass under them but otherwise in rather bare stoney ground. Rest of line went from cypress clump to cypress through mostly blooming Palo Pichi (Fabiana imbricata). Some of it Pure Palo Pichi. Hasn't been grazed for years or decades but not much grass, only scattered low shrubbery. Anta put 30 MS, 5 steel, at 8 cage traps in similar habitat. We both saw the field course blunt rounded red droppings that we think are Euryoryzomys. Ran our traps at 10-12 by flashlight and NVG's. Saw 2 mice run from shrub at brush, probably also. Longi. Anta's traps had alive (baby) and 3 other longi, and dead 2 other longi, longi (adult), 1 Oryz, 2 calico, and 1 Eligia. Night half cloudy, moon ½.

cypress next door to blow, although irregular in outline, averaged about 28" diam., and was 65 yrs old. an aphid ("pulgor") is attacking many kinds of conifers around town, and cypresses. Dec 4 Bariloche. Sunny, cool, very windy. Visited Adrian Mariani at INTA. Then Felipe + Rosa Vivero dropped in, then Michael Christie and Swann Brewer. Dec 5 Left at 11:30 for Confluencia. Lots of squirrels here but forgot to count. Sunny windy. The Aleria Reservoir has now filled the Valle Encantado, dead cypresses along the margin. In this survey dedicated to cypress, I am impressed by the abundance of cypress in the Confluencial Rio Trafal area, and lots of reproduction. Cypress goes all the way to the ridge on both sides of the lower Trafal, in spite of some high valleys full of lenga. There are at least 3 terminal moraines as you go up the Trafal Valley. We drove in to look at the the higher one, the one that now holds Sayo Defal, to compare our airphoto taken last year. You drive into the road toward the Primavera to the Fifth Holeberg but turn left on a dirt road before the holeberg. The trees growing on the terminal moraine that look small and scattered in the photo both quite dense and large (from a distance) on the ground.

The road to the terminal reservoir passes a cliff with a large master tree where there is a rock crevice with lots of bat droppings (but no bats) The road also passes a nice lake with lots of reeds. Stopped at Cueva Trafal and found [illegible] very large owl pellets, well inside near the east wall. On the north side of the river, the road up to our former camp was looked, but we walked out, saw numerous cypress with girdled or gnarled limbs (up to 2" deep) at Estancia de Primavera, the hellbender in the photo of Sabanero moving the lawn is about the same as in my photo, but I walked to the cypress in the lower center-left; it is much bigger than it looks. The trunk is 15 ft around at waist height. The cypress burler in the photo then it breaks up into 3 or 4 big trunks x are very I counted growth rings on two cypress (dead stumps); one was 1 foot in diameter and 83 years old, the other 10 inches and 34 years. at every place, we stopped we searched for Eurocamp and Rattlerodon droppings. Saw no Eurocamp sign and very few Rattler. Camped at the N bank of Cueva Trafal under Firerod master acacia just between the big volcanic plug and the river (across from Rio Cujin Mangao). Counted just about 12 cactus frogs and 1 plant and [illegible] dead and 3 Cactus frogs all around one Rattlerodon Center. Night calm,

Pearson 1955 79 Partly overcast. Deck. Heard barn owl during the night; my traps untouched; Anita caught Oryzomys and also Longi; saw shrews after daybreak. Saw nothing deerig to lower with NVGs. Returned early to Bariloche. Adrian Morgan came by with the summary of a survey picked up near the top of Cerro Bandera between Bernardo O'Higgins and the Collin's massif. It is a Euryzomys, nearly 1640 m. The five entire pellets from Cerro Traful: ① 1 old culico ② 1 ad. Oryz ③ 1 ad culiso ④ 2 ad. culisco ⑤ 1 ad. culisco ⑥ partial pellet 1 ad Oryz, Total: 5 Culisco, 2 Oryz, 1 Geskun, 1 also Longi. Light rain in afternoon. Drove to top of Cerro Otto (fierce wind and fog) and looked for Euryzomys sign on the "bare" west slope. None. Quite a bit of vegetation - wildflowers, moss, etc. At midday lots of armavory. Stopped on the way down at Piedras Blancas to look for 4 steel traps left by Milton Dallards; found 3 of them. At the place where we usually park, the only clump of locust has new shoots fully grown and apparently beginning to send out leaves.

Parker 1985 80 Dec. 7 Drv to Marful's Estancia 2 km E Est. Perito Moreno with Anita and Brenner Brewer, mostly overcast and a few sprinkles. I put out 15 cage and hold traps for Rattler; sign abundant. Anita put out 11 steel and 7 cage traps, also for Rattlers. Checked traps at 9:45 p.m. by NVG and flashlights and then observed Rattlers until 1:45, then hunted and observed from 3:45 to dawn when the last Rattler disappeared down a hole at 5:37. Dec. 8, 2 km E Perito Moreno, Night cool, partly clear, morning partly sunny. My traps caught 3 Rattlers on the 10 p.m. check, 1 on the 4 a.m. check, and am also having out in Pampa in a hole trap at 8 a.m., 32 m from fence and "cover". Anita caught 3 Rattlers and 3-5 longs. Once again, saw another species of mice while jacketting. Carancho still nesting. Mapping m morning. At 3 p.m. drove up to the microwave tower on the hilltop about 5 km SE of Estancia Perito Moreno. Windy. Lots of broken rock and open scree plus some tumbled rocks retaining wall holding the 1/2 ha pad on which the microwave tower are placed. Lots of Eunomorphus multinum dropping along these tumbled rocks. The sparse vegetation is Baccharis, menco, Ephedra, Acacia, Sawahare, niger on top, and Anita saw a small mouse among the rocks.

At 6 pm drove out to Marful's and then up to the microwave tower on the hill south of San Fragua Canyon, or about 5 km SE of Estacion Panto Moreno. Marful said the hill has no name except maybe "Majón". The top is 4,320 ft. Temperature and wind moderate. Set traps until dark. We trekked en route at the first summit 20 km NE Barilocks and left there 3 cago traps and 6 Sherman at 2 bushes where there were lots of Eurocamp droppings. Anta set 15 Sherman, 6 cago traps, and 10 steel traps and 17 MS. I set 6 cago traps, 12 Sherman, 15 MS, and 11 steel traps. Total = 91 traps, mostly set for Eurocamp, where droppings were abundant but not big concentrations. We set traps until dark, about 9:30, then checked them at 10 to 11 at which time we had 6 Eurocamp, 2 Chelomys, 1 Rattlesnake, and several Longipilis. Another Eurocamp near my bed at exactly 2 a.m.

The arranway at my photo spot on the trail up to the lind is Sylviriant solid Arranway, across the trail hardly any. Saw no earth cover. Searched for Enneomp in the open stony areas but saw no droppings, azarolls in bloomy seeds, although it was a beautiful season sunny Sunday we saw only one other party (q 2 people). No sign of recent cows or horses. Collected bloomy/ seeding Acorna for the micro. Dec.16 Barloche. Clear, warm, calm.

A seat at the new ski lodge/restaurant at the top of the left, said the altitude of the lodge was 2100m and we must have been a couple of hundred meters higher. Tumbled rocks and gravel and snowdrake, a few scattered cushion plants etc., a few tufts of a grass not known to me---and droppings of Enneomp! The plant cover surely < 1%. The droppings were in tumbled big rocks almost at the very highest point on the ridge between the Puentes del Cobollo and the top of the NW lift (Piedra del Cordor?).

Another specimen as at right → the curved-grooved part completely covered by culm sheaths all the way around. This specimen seems to have escaped the predator. The parts with the short [illegible] nodes, such as the curve, have [illegible] culm sheaths many layers deep. The insect tracks cut through the several layers.

Pearson 1985 Bamboo nov.6 Puerto Blest. The big clump that bloomed in the camping meadow just (yr. ago) looks just the same, the seed heads intact, no decay, see photo to see if dead leaves were still on it. Found one seed in a seed bed; no sprouting seeds, no new shoots. A few culms have grown leaves, and these culms bloomed last yr. and are blooming fresh lavender flowers now. Lots of culms died at top (short borer), some of these flowered. Definite yearling culm with flowers and no leaves. A similar big clump adjacent (30 ft) half the culms are flowering freshly; lots of dead shoots; definite yearlings flowering. A third similar clump nearby with no blooming new shoots ±to 1 ft. high. Rosemary plants are invading these clumps, no seedlings of bamboo. Tool incident - light readings with effluent water at ground level around periphery of clump D-1 where the new shoots come up, and compared with incident light on open road nearby; cloudy bright. Light falling on road was 40 times brighter. about 4 PM Then counted flowering plants between the camping meadow and El Albuco (±2 km); 6 on "south" side of road and 5 on "north" = total 11 Then chose a new clump to measure: D-2 across the road from the camping meadow, enter forest to the right of a huge Ribe, then bear left. 2nd growth, but large Cedrus tree, very little ground vegetation; etc.

Dromicei nov.4 Barro Colorado, Peter Temple-Smith and Bruce Paton et al. arrived from Limbuela, Chib, where they had been collecting Dromicei and L Rhypholochaster. The present habitat seems to be guilea bamboo, especially the N or NE side where the sun strikes. Their Chibouan field assistant found as many as 20 nests in 1 hour, but not all of them occupied. Several informants told them that Dromicei does indeed sleep (and/or fortor?) hanging by its tail. Rhypholochaster was very adept at handling earthworms.

December 1985 Eurycoryphe Dec 3, First summit, 20 km NE Baribela. 53 Troops overflight in the cypress bald above the road, many of them set for Eurycoryphe, caught 2 Eurycoryphe and 42 other mice. The adult female in a thir sparse grove under a cluster of 4 Cypress trees of good size. There were clumps of Sericea, Barberry, Bunchgrass, Acacia, Baccharis, Polypodi (Fabraea), and scattered smartweed (Polygonum). The soil was gravel of stones, quite open (see photo). Nearby was a considerable efflorescence of pure gravelly stones, and Polypodi in bloom. Near the base of the cypress were cuttings of Bald Cypresses. There was a woodpecker hole up in one of the cypress trunks, and there house and Eurycoryphe droppings in a fork 2 ft. off in the tree. There were also maybe a half dozen small holes a couple of inches deep, dug from the outside. The droppings have rounded sides, contain fairly coarse plant fragments, and are pale colored (beige). The other Eurycoryphe juvenile caught under a Collatia bush, mixed with Barberry, Baccharis and Sericea. There was a big cypress 15 ft. away, with green grass under it: meso, acacia, Ephedra, and Polygonum all within a few meters, but the "soil" open gravel + stone. The two animals were

Dec 6 a search for dropfumps and other evidence for presence of Eurycnomy in the Confluencia-Troful area, both sides of the Rio Troful, uncovered no evidence. Couldn't find any place worth even setting traps for them. Comparing the Estonia Prewar Photos from 1940 and 1950 reveals a great increase in cipres since that period. Adrian Morijean brought in a mummy of a Eurycnomy found by Eduardo Rainolo on Nov. 27 300m from the North Peak of Cerro Banecho, which is in the empty triangle 18 km NW of Nahuel Huapi (the outlet of the lake).

Reithrodor (cont.) 11/12 2 am E Est. Perito Moreno. Firelighting from dark (9:30) to 11:45 must have seen a dozen Reithro, including 3 within 3 m of each other. Heard no sound but they seemed to know when the others were. Weedy, open green grazed, and around Berberis dumps all good. Several instances of multiple capture at one hole or runway including two traps that caught 3 individuals successively. Two traps caught Culexomp first followed by Reithro. The distribution of holes is certainly Patchy; clustered. The quantity and distribution of droppings is phenomenal. In the open, grazed, green area south of the RR there is hardly a square meter without a few droppings, even if no burrows are nearby. No evidence of plugging of burrows. Our 4 traps baited with fresh dandelion flowers and/or rabbit chow (alfalfa) caught overnight 22 Reithros, 5 Culexomp, 7 Culexomp, and 1 live tucan-tuco. There were 15 cage traps, 10 hole traps (hole in bottom for setting over Reithro hole), and 15 steel traps (not baited). All set for Reithro. The steel traps were most effective (15 Reithros to 7). The habitat consists of an elevated railroad embankment and trapline with parallel fences 2 dm on each side. Fresh lush grass between the fences with scattered Senecio, thistle, Berberis, Cosium. Outside the fences is grazed bunchgrass/ Senecio/thistle or closely cropped green turf with scattered bunchgrass and quercus in some places.

Peaver 1985 Rathredon (cont.) not need to have Ctroumpa do it's digging at one point while we were watching mouse #3, it jumped suddenly straight up in the air and bounded off 5 or 10 metres; no visible or audible disturbance. nov, 27-28 then E. Bernto Morno, north of RR tracks. Camped in Chacay/Berlind/apos/bump thicket 150m west of former camp, and across RR. 24 cage, hole, and steel traps caught 26 mice (also longi, andeas, oryq, chaloumpa, and Rathredon), Afternoon sunny & warm, night clear, cool, light frost, moon 1 day part full. First Rathredon caught before dark (adult). at 9:50 set out with NVGs in the green turf with scattered buckwheat in the area near the brick pit. Saw one R. briefly at 10:02 but he disappeared almost immediately. Then picked up another at 10:04 and followed him Continuously until 10:33; N ↑ 10:35 10:33 10:31 10:29 10:27 10:25 10:23 10:21 10:19 10:17 10:15 10:13 10:11 10:09 10:07 10:05 10:03 10:01 10:04 During this 29 minutes, the last part with moonlight, the mouse made a series of 6-10 moves of 5 to 15 m, interferred with

Rattler (cont.) Periods of quiet feeding and probably some grooming, I did not try to get close enough to see what he was eating, but we would feed sites with flour and in the morning examined them. All had an assortment of small grasses and herbs such as fiddle (with green seed heads), smartweed (with flower or seed heads, only 2-3 inches tall), and small greases a couple of inches tall including which he ate. But then would hop away, leaving apparently undisturbed heads. He completely ignored overtalking, two - terce screening, broad out heating, and weak red flashlight. He did not dust - both, and we saw no other animal during this time. at 10:32 the taro-taros were screaming when he hopped almost a foot into the air (straight up) then ran about 5m and disappeared. The way had gone down a hole that was about 2m away from where I lost sight of him. Measured distance covered was 37 yards, no wind. We then hunted up along the fence post where we had seen three Rs more or less together, but got only a brief view of one at 11:04. To bed at midnight after checking traps. Got up at 3:45, full moon, cold, no wind. One brief view with NVGs at 3:55. At 4:00 located another adult in coarse, 8" grass W of the creek pit. He was hard to see, but I kept him in view until 4:31, when he disappeared. The only activity seen during this period

Reithrodor (cont.) was feeding, but he might have ground. He travelled not more than 10m during this time. No motion to horned out and other sounds. Then hunted up along the level; saw hare a couple of times but no mice. On the way back to camp, about 10m west of where the preceding R was, in 8" grass, I saw another 3m more open turf near stood bridle pile. about 4:45 to 5:24 a.m. = 39 minutes. He pattered around the bridle pile, to which he had run when I appeared, for perhaps 10 or 15 minutes, doing some eating and grooming and ignoring another R that came within 6m of him 3 or 4 times. Then he hopped about 5m away and fed seriously for 10 or 15 minutes. Early morning bird chorus began during this interval, eastern sky lightened, moon set. Another R ran past him about 2m away, no reaction. About 5:20 he hopped back to the bridle pile, then to the tiny pile, where I lost him. In the morning we found a single neat round hole about 2m from where I last saw him. By this time there was enough daylight for me to cross the log bridge without flashlight. Brrr! all 3 of these mice spent their time completely exposed

122 Reathreedon (cont.) on the prairie in full moonlight, apparently encountered about strange noises and sights, never common noises such as barred owls. We let that out on the "pacopa" They said there were the only animals seen (sheep in daytime), but also in the bushes and stiffer vegetation with a very high density of mice (>1 per trap night), we saw not one mouse. If these R. spends > ½ hr out in the open, how come we don't see more of them? We are catching breeding males, but no juveniles. Maybe they are Lobo Muntzera Californica ad bred when vegetation is green during the winter rainy season. Nov.29. Two adult captures left in cage with apple and with lots of tall grass with seed heads and with lactose Dissolution did not produce a great quantity of droppings, neither did the last adult. Those two don't fight, but one occupies the nest box and the other (the bigger) left in an opposite corner. They weigh 52 and 90 g. Tagged Nov.28 8 a.m. a big 4, clipped [illegible], at apple tree, #302. Nov.30 The droppings of the 2 captures over 24 hours 11/28-29 fed assorted green grasses with seed heads weighed (dry) 3.1 g (= 249 pellets), all small and dark (smaller, then most of the wild ones). a second 24-hr sample consisted of 194 pellets that weighed (air dried mass) 2.7 g. The two mice were then sacrificed and weighed 83g and 51g.

Ranthodon (cont.) Nov.30-Dec.1. arriving Estancia San Ramon at 9:30 p.m., Warm, no wind, moon came up about midnight. Heard barn owl a several times during night, saw one at 9:49. 6 horses near our observing area. They partly hazy all night. We had the NVGs on we spotted 4 Ranthodon during the night. #1 We picked up at 9:53 out in the turf, which was as early as you could get them to locate. Followed him until 12:25 when he went down a hole. Then we went to bed and got up at 3:45 (3/4 hour) and spotted 3 more Ranthodon (see below), the last one of which stayed out until 5:54, which was light enough to follow him until 11:00. Saw one other R while following it. Hence a total of 5 sightings in the 100 x 140 yd² area covered in our observations. Probably 4 or 5 individuals. See map next page. #1. Spotted soon after dark at 9:53, as early as we could be effectively and kept him in sight until he went down a hole in the turf at 12:25 = 2 hrs 32 min. The hole where he disappeared was 30 yards from where we first saw him. Another R passed within 2 m of him at 11:04 at a place 50 yards from the hole into which he disappeared. During the 2 1/2 hour, he spent most of it eating or "searching", presumably for food items. Occasionally he would settle in one spot for 5 minutes or more, poking into the grass for food, and chewing. He scratched his fur 3 or 4 times, worked his face 2 or 3 times, but no grooming sessions lasting more than a few

(5 seconds) Secondly. Several times he hopped towards me, only 2 to 3 feet away. Almost all our observing was at 6 to 12 feet distance. He completely ignored labours screaming and from oral scratching (and our conversations). He could be identified by a small pole effect on his right side/shoulder. Once he squatted fleetingly as he crossed a bare patch. I did not see him separate at any time. At 11:55 he crossed diagonally the open turf area, took only a few minutes but never ran continuously more than maybe 50 yards. At 12:22 he left the cattered brush/grass/scrub and headed leisurely out into the open turf. At 12:25 he picked up in his teeth what looked like a piece of bone about 10 x 60 mm, and ran directly with it to a solitary hole in the turf and went down the hole with the bone. This was the only thing he did in 2 1/2 hours. It could not be classified under "snoop and mill". He never seemed to take advantage of shelter, no dashing furiously from bush to bush, no freezing timorously in response to noises. In the morning we looked around the hole into which he disappeared - a typical simple round R hole with few (or no?) R droppings. Within 2 or 3 yards we found a white hair dropping of hare hair, a few pieces of old weathered branches of poplar/white birch, and a few fragments of sheep or hare bone. He could have picked

my way over there. Dug down in the rather heavy compact soil, etc. burrow branched almost immediately and both branches ran off at a depth of about 10 meters. There was another simple opening about 2 ½ m away. not counting zig-zag of less than a few m, to cover a linear distance of at least 224 yards; map, distance across area traveled = 94 yards. #2 Shot him in broomgrass at N edge of the turf after 20 minutes of hunting (at 4:13 a.m.). Lost him promptly. #3 In scattered broomgrass at 4:38 AM. Followed him for 17 min. of snuff and muffle. Disappeared into a hole under a bush at 4:55, same place where we had found him. He had gone only 7 yards away. #4 5:15 a.m., moving bird chorus had been going for at least 20 min, sky lightening in east. Found another one in broomgrass/settled heavier soil of the turf. By 5:26 could see mouse and white not too easily cutted (fleabite or goggles). The last star disappeared at 5:50. At 5:54 the R, after 39 minutes of feeding, he worked his way out to the middle of the turf and went down a hole, simple hole, no decoration, 5:54 a.m. Exposure meter read f.2 1/30 for ASA 125x. The hole was 16 yards from where we first looked him up. Airwolf, distance was 20 m. all snuff and muffle. At one place he stayed and ate enthusiastically.

127 -rally a (12-cental) very grass seed bale, alternating. NTA says genus is Vulpia. Dec, 7-8. Put out a total of 15 cages, 11 stool, and 10 cage traps at 2 barn E Estacion Parto morning, set for Rattlers. Dropping everywhere. Checked at 10pm, 12 pm, and A.M. Caught 6 Rattlers and 4 to 6 also large. Used the NVG's from 9:45 to 1:50 and 3:45 to 5:37 (quite light by then). Rarely took more than 5 minutes to locate another Rattler, and we saw several encounters between individuals. Saw shrews, but no other species of mouse. Heard harp owl. I took Michael's .22 on the 3:45 expedition and located numerous Rz between the fence and the RR. Shot the first one, missed the shot 2, then the gun jammed. When missed, they don't even run away! Gwen + I tried moving with a copper-wire mouse on the end of a fishing rod. She was able to twitch one with the wire without dropping it (several times), but the mouse was in frenzied and she couldn't get the mouse around its head (the rod never moved hazards). The one that tried to move ran away just as the mouse approached. During the 5 hrs 36 min of NVG (including about 10 min of flashlight) we (3 people) encountered 23 Rattlers. Perhaps as many as 4 or 5 of these are roapate, hence about 20 R. Much of this time was spent concentrating

on a few individuals, not searching for more animals (the 3 people were using the NVGs sequentially). after mopping the area, I counted 8 droppings in 21 hoop samples, every 5 yards along the fence (11 sampler) then out onto the turf to the "peninsula" where the 3 juveniles played. Some guinea. Numerous sheep and some hare droppings. The average diameter (av. of 6) of the heavy were hoof was 56 cm (= 0.25 m²) and the pellet counts were 1,10,25,0,11,1,2,0,1,33,0,4,0, 0,1,0,0,2,12,74,152. av. 15.6 pellets per hoop = 62/m².
