Herdman 1950 Elachistoleis ovale Nov. 6 5am N. Villavieja, 1400 ft., Huila, Colombia, 5-A. cultivated plants here are small (to 3' or 4') bananas, and a sugar cane-like plant in rows about 3' apart, and rice. growing to 3'-6 1/2', A Most of the ground in this corner of the field is muddy or has puddles of standing water. The grass growing here is apparently a vegetatively-reproducing plant, appearing similar to Bermuda Grass See Dr. Holbling's notes, his #5021, for color & form description. Nov. 9 Villavieja, 1400 ft., Huila, Colombia, 5-A. One specimen (RCS#5049) was heard, traced (triangulation on its call) several times, and finally collected (see map in today's journal for collection spot). It moved about 2 ft. at least once while we were searching for it - probably because of the disturbance created by our search. We were again impressed by the ventriloquial quality of the frog's voice, and by its secretive-ness. When we finally, on the 4th or 5th attempt, located the frog, we were kneeling with our ears about 2'-3' distant from it, and saw it only after a thorough search.
