1927 P,34 Los Esesmiles, Dept, Chalatenango, Salvador March 2, 1927 - Five specimens of semi-aquatic Orizonys were taken today in traps that were set in the small streams near camp. The only traps that caught these Orizonys were taken in traps which had been set in the water. March 3, 1927 - The usual small trap lines was run near camp today and more sets were made for Orthoconys in the brush and ferns on the east slope of the mountain Los Esesmiles. A special rest was taken during the day for the long tramps laid out for night hunting for Lutra. I followed the streams in the so called, plains region from 7 P.M. until 12:30 A.M., and saw absolutely nothing to shot at except horses and mules. March 4, 1927 - I managed my work th same as I did eyesterday, but followed other streams for Lutra with no result.
