19 January Left #0745 w/ Carlos Gomez on the ridge trail that goes from
just W. of our camp to the Rio Peje. Carlos dropped
off to set up a net for birds at a creek. Reached 1280'
on the trail at 1000 hrs. Saw an Eleutherodactylus w/ red thighs
and a couple of Arolis. Partly cloudy. Caught an adult
F' Arolis limifrons at 1200', 1005 hrs. At 1300', 1015 hrs,
heard Albuetta. Got a Dendrobates pumilio at
1280' at 1050 hrs. Reached an Atta nest overlooking
the Rio Peje at 1400'. Went a couple hundred meters
more, then turned around. Saw an adult Oreixim
in a light gap tangle - appeared to be foraging
and at least 1m above ground, tho the tangle is
continuous w/ the trail. Took a wrong turn and went
down a trail to the Rio Peje - extremely steep, had
some trouble getting up the slippery slope. Found
right trail by then very hot & sweaty! At 1214 hours,
1320', got a Sphenomorphus cheniei active
in litter beside the trail. At 1345 missed a
small (x 3 cm) green-backed frog, maybe Rana
palimpse. Saw another Sphenomorphus
cheniei in sun beside the trail at 1200',
1355 hrs. G. Stiles brought me a Dendrophidion
he found in the morning on the trail between
the largest stream that crosses the trail to the
Peje and the Rio, dead when he gave it to me.
M. Graham brought in what seems to be an Arolis
capito - has lots of green on sides of body. Audio
