Oct. 7 2 ♂♀ mice were caught on this date. Both
were taken on ground slightly above high
tide level and covered by a growth of
Salicornia. Traps baited with oatmeal were
set on Microtus runways.
Oct. 21 1 ♂, 2 ♀ were collected at the same locality.
The ♂ was caught in a trap under
a bush of Gindelia cuneifolia and not
on an especial Microtus run. However,
Salicornia was present on all sides.
The 2 ♀ were taken on Microtus runs
beneath Salicornia.
