SPECIMENS COLLECTED: None.

OTHER MATERIAL: Apparently none.

REMARKS: Pumas are hunted along the crest of the Cordillera Oriental, where they are said to follow the movements of deer in remote parts of the páramo near Cerro Antisana ( Emerson and Johnson, 1960), but I did not observe any in the course of my work near Papallacta.
