Transcription Notes:
S. Eichhorn - Added second collector. Geonames places Laguna de Ayarza in Santa Rosa, which borders Jalapa. Wikipedia also confirms this. (@AntelopeWest) Indeed the lake is in Santa Rosa. Its elevation is 1450 m or 4750 ft. The elevations around the lake are all below 6500 ft. (2000m.) The nearest place I can find that gets close to 8000 ft (2450m) is in Jalapa. I have left the transcription as done by the previous transcriber.
