Few characteristic species have been taken from the trees. From the bark of the trunk we have taken harvestmen {Oligolophus piclus and Liobunum nigropalpi) and from the twigs woolly aphids {Pemphigus imbricator) (Fig. 245). There is an occasional lo larva on the leaves (Fig. 244). The great crested flycatcher, wood-pewee, bluejay, scarlet tanager, red-eved vireo, and woodthrush nest in the low trees and on the lower.
