1927 P.20 Hos Eses miles, Dept., Chalatenango, Salvador February 11, 1927- A Scotinomys No. 12502, was caught in a set similar to many others where these mice have been found. Of the many attempts which I have made to catch shrews, the only mammal which I have caught in the traps were these supposedly Scotinomys Pitymys. Heteromys, No. 12503, was taken where No. 12498 was catched yesterday. Reithrodonomys Nos. 12504 and 12505, were caught in a stripped corn field in an old gopher run which had been broken in in several places. Three Reithrodontomys, Nos. 12508, 12509, and 12510 were caught along the brushy stream bank near camp. Peromyscus, Nos. 12506 and 12507, were caught near the water's edge of one of the streams near camp. Both traps were set by some rocks and under vines. Today the house boy brought to me two house mice, and a black rat. Mus musculus No. 12511 was put up.
