Nordbrickson 1950 Journal Nov. 15 Bogota, 8500 ft., Cundinamarca, Colombia, S.A. of a rat killed near the lab. building (?). This specimen is for Dr. Pearson. Dr. Richter gave me three letters of introduction (and request to aid me) which were to me in Villavicencio. Those letters are to: 1. Sr. Don Alfredo Lopez, Manager, Meta Hotel 2. Corredor, Instituto Roberto Franco 3. Chief of Police, Meta. 4. Sr. Comandante de la Brigada, Meta. From the Instituto we walked to the Servicio Geologico and W from the Servicio a few blocks to a meadow in which we studied Hyla labialis (see species account). Nov. 16 Changed money. Went to Laboratorio y Museo del Servicio Geologico (963, Carrera 15), and with the help of Perico and Paulino, re-packed our gear stored there in preparation for the Villavicencio trip. Most of the gear will be kept there while we are in Villavicencio. Perico will care for three live animals and the Canaan skin until we return. Paid Perico off today. Bought airplane tickets to Villavicencio.
