R.B. Hamilton 1967 Journal Rio Chamaya, 35 km SE of San Felipe, Dept. of Cajamarca, Peru, elevation 2500 ft. August 21 identify them. A small irrigation stream went through this grove and many frogs were in the stream. Higher up the hill vegetation was mostly scattered cactus and grasses. I saw a large snake about 4 ft. long but it disappeared before I was able to shoot it. About 11:00 I returned to camp empty-handed and somewhat em- barrassed. We departed about 11:15. En route to Bagua, Dept. of Amazonas, Peru On the way we followed streams as much as pos- sible. Area is basically dry but there is much vegetation along streams. We saw many doves and Saffron Finches (Sicalis flaveola). About 15:00 we crossed Rio Maranon. We stopped in the middle of the bridge and took pictures. We later stopped in an area short of Bagua which con- sisted mostly of cactus and low shrubs. This was a very dry cactus thorn scrub vegetation. We looked here for birds and lizards and saw Fasciated Wrens, other wrens, conebills, mocking birds, and Ray flushed some kind of caprimulgid. We did not collect anything here. We moved on about 2 km to where a small stream crossed road in an area of much higher vegetation, mostly mesquite, and established camp.
