Hacienda, Jiqui # Rosario , 
Ensenada de Co chinos , Cuba* February, 1908 
The Cienega de Zapata (Orientae) is back about 3 miles from 
snore line* 
Collecting here now (dry season) is poor. The few opercuiates 
are found dead in open spaces among limestone rocks and on the 
ground near the shore, but no specimens taken in the forest* (see later) 
The few live specimens found same station* Ho Li&uus seen whatever, 
even fragments (see later), yet all natives say they are abundant on 
trees in the rainy season. Ceylon i os tom a Pfr. occurs along the 
shore on vegetation, but usually hidden from open sight, concealed 
in crevices of wood and upon dead palm leaves, generally in colonies 
or patches® The Geoolis supertexta are only found on dead palm leaves, 
generally the withered ones in the folds of which they can hide, and 
by their similar color make discovery difficult. Dead specimens of 
these, as of almost every species other than the very small ones, are 
inhabited by hermit crabs, with which this region fairly swarms* The 
Amuallarla apparently occurs in limited numbers wherever there is 
fresh water, but are abundant on the vegetation in the Cienga proper* 
They live concealed from sight and are preyed upon by the water 
fowl, according to the report of natives* Shells of Ampul 1 aria are 
met almost anywhere tenanted by hermits, even on the shore of the bay.
