Mustrangi, Meika A. 1994 Journal 62 E. B. Boracéia Estação Biológica de Boracéia 27 July 1994 Jim, Carol, Gustavo Acaccio and I anived here yesterday. The reserve is 1 hour (highway) + 1 hour (dirt road) away from São Paulo. We set up all live traps: 60 small Shermaus, 59 Tomahawks, 40 large Shermaus. Jim + Carol also set up 24 snaptraps. Seu Firmino, the care- taker helped us choosing places and setting up traps. Jim + Carol set up traps on trilha dos Pilões, downhill, in front of the researchers' house, and on the crest trail (along the crest of the scarpment), which runs behind the house. Gustavo and I walked up the road and set up traps along the trail that takes to Poco Verde and also in several places along the road, as short transecte (5 stations) into the forest. Weather is really nice, sunny, blue sky, not hot though. It's chilly at night. I have been here twice or three times and have never seen a non-foggy Boracéia
