taken, I saw only one Mormoops,
No. 12056, near the mouth of the
tunnel. Back near the face of the
tunnel we found many
Chilonictis rubiginosa, a representative
No. 12066 was taken. One half of
a mile farther down the Bis Stes
George D. Stirlon saw several
of this species hanging under
a shady clump of trees. Nos. 12067
and 12068 were shot by him.
Clear day, 7 A.M.-72°F in
shade, 12 N,-90°F in shade,-
December 9, 1926- Most
of the day was spent in camp.
Toward evening we went over
to the old furnaces in the ore
plant where I found many
Peroptryx canina last year. I found
these little bats more abundantly
in the partially lighted furnaces.
By stretching a mosquito net
over the door of one of the furnaces
we caught 7139 bats. They all
were one species, Peroptryx canina.
Clear day, 7 A.M.-72°F.
