Nov. 2
5 A.M. N Cerbatara, 1400 ft., Huila, Colombia, S. A.
River running very muddy, but Duebrada
Cerbatara clear again, as usual. 20
Museum Speciales and two steels out.
Nov. 3
Heavily salted with tiny ticks tonight.
20 traps out.
Nov. 3
Nothing in traps. Walked down Duebrada
Cerbatana to Magdalena River, and
Along the river bank for a short
distance, and returned to camp.
See species accounts: Stelgidopteryx,
(Dramifer)
'fretus non', Ameiva, C. ani, Psarcolius,
Colinus. Smored young Ameiva at edge
of camp in thorn brush. An afternoon
walked over high plate 5 of camp.
I have noted three kinds of termites
in this area: a small species which builda
tunnele and "nests on fence posts; a
larger species with minute soldiere
which build arboreal "nests" and
tunnels (see bat #14399 Brotogeris
(Phyllostomus)
and another larger (than 1st above) species
which build soil towers on open,
rather barren, ground. The last
species has "orthodox" soldiere.
At night I walked, with jacklight, down
R.R. tracks to vicinity of Duebrada
Fajas and returned via same route. See species
accounts: Lyliolagen, adivan, poor-will, Hylaeospiza
