8:30 am. Just below forest. Edge upper Korea station.

See mixed flock in moderately high and dense scrub along stream. Not far from where mixed flock with "All-rufous" Synallaxis seen yesterday. Probably partly same flock.

Group as a whole noisy. [[underline]] No definite consistent leadership. [[/underline]] All or most species ranging 5-20 ft above ground. Thrushes and [[underline]] Compiocoma [[/underline]] usually relatively high. [[underline]] Chlorospingus [[/underline]], Blue & Black, and WCC usually medium. Yellowfaces ranging high to low. [[underline]] Frequently [[/underline]] down low, 5 ft up, in the "stratum" which is "typically". Slate throat [[underline]] But [[/underline]], when they were down this low, [[underline]] the Slate throat was nowhere near them.[[/underline]] I.E. the 2 species of Whitestarts here may have a typical "mutual avoidance - inhibition" relationship of a "diglossine type"!!!
REMARKS:
I. The "habitat requirements" of Atlapetes spp. at higher elevations seem to "coincide" with those of [[underline]] Diglossa [[/underline]] spp. Neither is very abundant in very dense and very high (i.e. very humid) forest.
Most of the [[underline]] brightly colored [[/underline]] allo-gregarious tanagers also seem to be somewhat rare in such environments.
All 3 groups differ from the "typical bush-tanagers", e.g. such forms as [[underline]] Hemispingus [[/underline]] and [[underline]] Basileuterus [[/underline]], (generally olive, yellow, brown, black, etc.) which [[underline]] do [[/underline]] seem to be relatively abundant in thick, high, humid vegetation.
