The scanty data from Bleiweiss's and Almendariz's field notes are surprisingly consistent on a number of points. Bleiweiss col- lected the type on a sunny afternoon around 1:00 , after the clouds had lifted: "The animal was moving slowly and deliber- ately down the stem of an unidentified (herbaceous) Gesneraceae overhanging the [upper] bank along a forested section of the ; Similarly, Ana Almendariz reported that her specimens were col- lected along roads between 10:00 and 12:30 in humid but sunny Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Harvard University.
