Nordmarchan 1950 Journal 87 Dec. 5 Bogota, 8700 ft (8500 ft) Carindamerica, Colombia, S. A. Dr. Stebbins and I left the Hotel Claridge at about 6:40 A.M. and went up on Montevate to the localities where we had collected before. See species account of Phylllobates subpunctatus. We walked down along the boulevard and descended through the Parque Nacional to the city level. We were able to collect a few Oedignus and some "Dark Bogota (Hylioid?) Frogs" in the short time available up on the hill. At 10:00 A.M. we went to see Dr. Manuel Doca, Instituto Carlos Finlay; he will write a letter to the ministry of agriculture requesting permission to export our livestock with me. Then we went to Ciudad Universitaria. I said goodbye to Dr. Gutierrez (Servicios Deologicos) while Dr. Stebbins revisited the Ryla labralis habitat for photos and specimens. Later we visited the men at the Instituto de Ciencias Naturales and picked up our box of skins (stored there) and a live boa they gave us as a present. P.M. spent packing and doing miscellaneous chores.
