Killi expedition to Gabon - July 2016

Discovering
the true
primary forest

< Day 2	Back to summary	Day 4 >
D3 - Fougamou, the ghost town ? *07/06/2016 - Journey : Lambaréné --> Fougamou*

A little bit late departure of the hotel. We have breakfast (omelet) in a small cafeteria then we go at the surprising market of the city. Tons of fishes: "without name" and clarias come from the close lakes in dugouts.
We leave finally at 10 am past, southward, to take a track, actually unknown for killifishes.

A first normal point is going to precede by two others more surprising. Even if Aphyosemion escherichi is omnipresent, we find all the same Aphyosemion boehmi and one (or two) new Plataplo (already found in Wonga-Wongué?).

We sleep this evening to Fougamou, where we had difficulty in finding a hotel and especially a restaurant. To finish, pig with rice was rather good ! After a few hours crossed to make photos and water changes, it's time to go to sleep. It is 1 o'clock in the morning!
