August 2 and 8. I collected at Burdeos. 
August 4. I returned to the town of Polillo. 
August 5 to 10. I collected in the vicinity of Polillo. 
August 11. I went to Bislian in the southern part of the island. There 
I found several new species. 
August 12. I returned to Polillo. 
August 13. I left Polillo. 
August 14. I arrived in Manila. 
MINDANAO 
September 23 to October 6. During this period I collected in the south- 
ern part of Zamboanga Peninsula, for the most part in the mountains 
along Tumugao River, including a two days’ journey from the waterworks’ 
intake. Only a few species were found. One specimen of the rare black 
and yellow cobra, Naja samarensis, and three or four frogs of undescribed 
species were collected. 
BASILAN 
October 7. I collected in the vicinity of Isabela. Through the kindness 
of Mr. Guy Holland, a lumberman of Isabela, I was taken by launch to 
Port Holland, the site of a sawmill on the western coast directly opposite 
Great Govenen and Little Govenen Islands.2 I had visited this point in 
1917 and had found several interesting specimens. At that time primeval 
forest covered the sites. 
October 8 to 14. Port Holland. I found Polypedates pardalis and 
Polypedates appendiculatus while collecting at night. A good breeding 
series of Kalophrynus stellatus was taken. While here I was very kindly 
entertained by Mr. Hamilton, the sawmill manager, who facilitated my 
collecting in no small degree. 
October 15. to 23. Abung-abung. Thanks to the kindness of Mr. 
Hamilton and Mr. Holland, I was enabled to visit a logging camp on the 
southern part of the island. It was an ideal collecting ground, and many 
specimens and species were taken, some of them unknown tome. A cecilian 
differing from Ichthyophis weberi was discovered and four specimens 
were taken. I had splendid success collecting at night. Returned to 
Isabela on the 23d and left for Zamboanga the same day, embarking there 
for Jolo on October 24, 1920. 
JOLO 
Oetober 25 to November 16. This period was spent in making col- 
lections in the western half of Jolo. Visits were made to Mount Tuman- 
tangis, Bud Daho, Indanan, Camp Romandier, and a point near the central 
part of the island where the Government cattle ranch is situated. I am 
under great obligation to Capt. Francis Link, formerly of the Philippine 
Constabulary, who accompanied me on many of my trips. A specimen 
of the rare Luperosaurus joloensis was seen, but it escaped in a tall tree. 
November 17. I sailed for Manila.
