The Oryzomys caught the other night escaped from the

crosses the trail (not a bambuzal), 2m high, many
fallen trees/branches around.
② Graciliana, in Sherman set 1m high on a bam-
boo (bambuzal); trap set in T fork
③ Micoureus in Sherman (MNFS 43), 2.0m high on a
thin branch crossing trail (diameter ≈ 3cm)
④ Proechimys (Tom 44 on the ground); was dying
