Task: Looking for more Guarea in Rio Limbo
Location: Rio Limbo
Assistants: Fredy
Weather: Sunny and hot all day
Truck Status: One top notch BCI boat drivers left the car so low on gas that I could not make it all the way to the gas station without having to push. I missed the boat back to the island... and lots of anger ensued.
Fredy and I did not find many Guarea guidonia, but we marked three more Guarea fuzzy and 1 more Faramea luteovirens to up sample size.
I also saw the world's most amazing fungus. There was a fungus (or lichen?) that looked like very white roots that grew up the base of all the trees in a 20 m radius. It seems like it travel though the soil and also lives on top of dead logs in between. Fredy has the pictures. It was fantastic.
