Los Eses miles, Dept., Chalatenango, Salvador
brush. This specimen was
taken not more than onehundred
feet from where No. 12528 was
trapped yesterday. Our
native assistant caught a small
immature mouse in the heavy
oak rain forest near the Honduras
Salvador border. He saw it
in the day time and caught it
with his hands. For want of
a better name and of description
to lead to better identification
I am calling it Oryzomys caliginosus
No. 12535.
February 16, 1927- Part of
my old trap line which I had
not removed had two mice today.
Pitymys (Scotinomy) No. 12536, was taken where
No. 12514 was caught. This makes
several taken in the same set.
Reithrodontomys, No. 12537, was caught
under grass in the cleared pine
region; Sciurus deppei was caught
in a steel trap which I had
set in the oak rain forest under
a large log.
