W. Rimer 1950 Journal 8 Apr. Mexico: Chiapas: 28 mi. ESE Caintan, 4900 ft., San Jose. hiding place of a murine opossum which promptly ran up a small tree, it was shot. On the lower side of the ridge the growth is of oak and agave, thistle and small shrubs. An Aphelocoma unicolor was taken in the pine woods and a Trogon mexicanus at the edge of the stream-course jungle. Again a large number of pieces of surface litter were turned over but no reptiles or amphibs. This place is apparently no so damp at night as the previous locality and the underside of bark of fallen logs in exposed places is never wet enough for salamanders; also the bark is seldom very thick. 9 Apr. Camp cook and guard today. Shot a Sialia in camp and put up several of Kofords birds. In afternoon took 2 young Rana pipiens a margin of small pool in opening in pine woods. Weather: windy but warm and sunny. 10 Apr. Spent entire day in field. Walked almost as far as Montebello. First took coral snake under small log just beyond Tierra Blanca. Then found several Ranids of two species at edge of small muddy pool nearby. Also at this pool took one very small Hybid. A few hundred yards away searched vicinity of ridge marsh for Thamnophis but found none.
