Mustangi, Meika A. 1993 journal 43 with the coarse and short scapular hairs (= the adult pelage in this species). We left Ibium on the Wednesday, the 29th of September. Res/Est Biol Sta Lúcia, Sta Teuza - ES We arrived in Sta. Teuza on the 30th late at night. Santa Teuza is a small town (30,000 inhabitants) at 650 m elevation, 90 km north of Vitória, the capital of the state. In Sta. Teuza lies the Museu de Biologia Mello Leitão, created by the famous humming-bird researcher Augusto Ruschi. We stayed at the researchers' house in the Estação Biológica de Santa Lúcia, 8 km south, by road, of the town. It has 590 ha in area. We set up 40 Tomahawk traps along the main trail, which goes along the river Tibuí and bordering the forest. Many tree and ground bromeliads with colourful and varable flowers abound. Hummingbirds and orchids are also quite striking there. Traps remained open for two nights. As bait we used banana, goiabada and peanut butter. Besides the two animals collected, we also captured one lactating Metachirus and 2 Philan- der: an old male and a female with her pouch full of young.
