Fig. 38 in Systematic Reviews Of New Guinea Coccymys And ''Melomys'' Albidens (Muridae, Murinae) With Descriptions Of New Taxa

Fig. 38. Reproduction of map covering region of Mt. Dayman worked by the Fourth Archbold Expedition to New Guinea, 1953 (originally published in Brass, 1956). The holotype of Coccymys kirrhos was captured at locality 4, the ''Top Camp,'' at 2230 m. This was the highest of six camps established along a transect anchored at Baiawa, Moi Biri Bay, and extending through the adjacent coastal plain on to the northern slopes of Mt. Dayman. The Cape Vogel Peninsula and Goodenough Island in the D'Entrecasteaux Archipelago were also surveyed during the same expedition, but our focus is on collections of mammals made along the transect from the coastal lowlands (beginning with camp 3) to near the summit of Mt. Dayman. The numbered camps below correspond to the numbered symbols on the map; the physical settings of the camps along with their floristic environments are reported by Brass (1956): 3, Baiawa, 30 m: May 6–11, September 7–9; 4, top camp, north slopes of Mt. Dayman, 2230 m, collections were made up to 2700 m, May 17 to June 19; 5, number 2 camp, north slopes of Mt. Dayman, 1550 m, June 20 to July 12; 6, number 3 camp ''Bottom Camp,'' north slopes of Mt. Dayman, 700 m, July 13–26; 7, Biniguni camp, Gwariu River, 200 m, July 27 to August 13; 8, Peria Creek, Kwagira River, 50 m, August 14 to September 6.
