Tuve el gusto de ver a esta especie tan rara en persona el año pasado durante un curso de monitoreo de fauna y flora en la selva Lacandona. En su momento se nos dijo que no publicaramos las fotos ya que se estaba trabajando en un artículo que ya ha sido publicado https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.researchgate.net%2Fpublication%2F380099306_SECOND_RECORD_OF_THE_MOUNTAIN_CAECILIAN_GYMNOPIS_SYNTREMA_AMPHIBIA_GYMNOPHIONA_DERMOPHIIDAE_FOR_MEXICO_IN_TRES_LAGUNAS_LACANJA_CHANSAYAB_OCOSINGO_CHIAPAS_SEGUNDO_REGISTRO_DE_LA_TAPALCUA_GYMNOPIS_SYNTR%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR3WpRjxn_xU97bMcltb79k8aWslZRs9bcXiompsDwT1b_FRtgVTlpcGtJA_aem_AZWYUBm1wc92sUgbG5EEpZ3puWz5pasBxqooUTha-TKXcwICHSlfYGZVWk2aauOYV2VFnpfHwlACJP4N3GDkRmXL&h=AT2CSlm6rz1RYhCSaFBDLHNyGeDkxC2qrR8oarP0XQKkCtV53fiupoyMHwtbh30b-8mBtB7RqEVJhAJ51cGKA9Nk_yEeCTbrOYE5BdGOhri66gXw7Aw45bJYBb9xImpy-0he&tn=-UK-y-R&c[0]=AT0chwIsM1Jv2DGSV1cwZgt1lSloIYGJtdSpMx-YB8vTy8-6pxWx4_gIHHXbJdevFZ9DGmOTbM906IXLzAfpUd1cLp73w36GeP8qQTFj0FpbDY-qye7zcW_tMsaF-uGHLp8-RoLNavc5Ts8q7I_LdJtneToXfxe5TOj-N-Nm4TVk-y0GCQ
