1927 P.7. Barra de Santiago, Dept., Ahuachapan, Salvador April 5, 1927 - The mangroves are literally alive with Procyon cancrivorus. Early this morning five squirrels were seen in a mango tree where they were feeding on green mango fruit. The four that were killed were males, Nos. 12760 to 12763 inclusive. While hunting through the swamp forest today and while looking at my traps I saw three Tasyproda, but was unable to shoot them as I only got glimpses of them here and there as they dashed through the coccol palms. April 6, 1927 - The only thing of interest today was the collecting of Nyctomys No. 12765, which was taken on a leaning tree in the swamp forest.
