Mustangi, Meika A. 1953 journal 37 P.E. Ilhabela - SP the highest point along that same road, half-way to Praia (=beach) de Castelhano. (the end of the road). We set 15 stations with 1 Tomahawk and 1 Sherman on the ground and 1 Sherman tied to a branch, standard procedure; Bait used: goiabada (guava preserve) and mortadela (kind of mild sausage)) in both elevations. At the 200m trail we crossed a river. At the 200m elev. trail we also set up 5 kill traps (museum specials) with alternating goiabada and mortadela. Temperature remained warm days and nights: 20-22°C during the day and 14-17°C at night, during our stay (4 days trapping, as usual). On the night when we arrived at the island the weather was rain and heavy mist, but the following morning it cleared to a blue sky and warm temperatures and stayed like that till the end. The moon turned full during our stay, and since the 1st night was very bright and came out quite early (at sunset). We were unable (timewise) to set up traps at the "mata seca", as Fabio calls it on the northern end of the island.
