Normal Loop 1969 journal 84 Aug. 19 (cont.) 2.1 km. E, 7 km. N Olmos, 2300 ft., Depto Lumbayague, Peru Phylletis. I noticed it had a reddish rump part, like magister tends to have. Unfortunately, I couldn't get it. Ray caught a large Phyllostomid bat in his net, like the ones I got at the ridge. Aug. 20 Nothing in mine or Dr. Koford's mist nets. Ray had 6 more of the Phyllostomid bats. This net was in a little construction in the stream. Neither Ray nor I caught any mice along the fence barrier. I 2 honeycreepers I put up that I got yesterday in my net were a male & a female. The female had a little caterpillar or worm or larvae in her mouth, about 3/4 in. long + black & yellow striped. Dr. Koford caught 2 Phylletis audium at the box of a rock outcrop on a dry hillside with cactus and open trees 100 ft. from the canyon bottom. All 7 of Ray's bats were ??, perhaps they go around in segregated bands. One had an almost full-term embryo. I put up another that had a younger embryo (43 mm MAL 310). I checked on the ? Parulup. She had eaten her 3 babies, leaving only the heads. 12:30pm. We drove back out towards Motupe. At about 3:00pm. we found a place to camp near Motupe at the base of Cerro de la Viaja. There is quite a lot of exploiting granite here, and we are looking for geckos. I set 23 swamp traps at various holes around rocks
