Mr. Ratibor Hartmann 
November 7, 1950 
I have just finished writing the description of the 
Pepper Shrike, Cyclarhis from Madrono, opposite Chiman, and 
from Maje. This proves to be a new form. I am also describing 
the California dove that I shot at the head of the trail on the last 
trip that I made above our camp on the Quebrada Chucanti. There 
will be other new things later. 
The ibis that Mr. Clark brought in is very interesting, 
since it proves to be the Guiana or White -throated Ibis, Theristicus 
caudatus. This is a South American species that has never been 
recorded before in Panama. The bird has come through in good 
shape and I appreciate very much the trouble you took with it. 
Baldemero, I gather, is a better hunter than he is a taxidermist. 
Some time ago I sent some pictures to Chiman to DoHa 
Maria and also to our three men. I have not heard from them but 
hope that they got through all right. 
I understand that you may work for a little while with 
Dr. Hartman and that Yaroslav will be with him throughout his trip. 
If Mr. Perrygo and I wish to have some one assist us, is there 
one of your other brothers who w'ould be available who would be 
good for the type of work that we would do? 
I would appreciate hearing from you regarding this. 
Sincerely yours, 
hs 
A. Wetmore, 
Secretary.
