Puerto del Triunfo, Dept, Usulutan Dec., 28, 1925 - Jan., 25, 1924 Sciurus Gray-tailed Squirrel, Variegated Squirrel - Hordia During our stay at Puerto del Triunfo I saw five Gray-tailed Squirrels. Two were seen in the dense collol palms in the jungle about a mile east of the village. One was eating Collol palm fruit and the other was running up a slanting tree from [illegible] where he had been rustling in the dry leave on the ground. Two others were seen [illegible] at the edge of a corn patch north of camp, one ran up a tree where he was shot, No 11011, and the other escaped in low dense brush. The specimen taken had corn in his stomach. The fifth squirrel was in [illegible] an orange tree gust back of the old hotel.
