Species Account
Red Spotted Toad
(Bufo punctatus)
17 May Goldstone Spring, Providence Mountains
San Bernardino co., CA.
T10N R14E Sec 31 SW'ly. elev. 1420 m.
I found two live and one dead, dried
up toads in one pitfall trap just below
the Desert almond bush through which a very
small stream from the spring flows. The muddy
stream dries up just below this pitfall trap.
Habitat is narrow, rocky sided canyon and somewhat
sandy wash in steep, rocky, barren (burned
piñon-juniper woodland) hillsides.
17 may Spring 1/4 mi. southeast of Goldstone spring,
Providence Mountains, San Bernardino co., CA.
T9N R14E Sec 6 NE'ly. elev. ~1500 m.
Found on more toad trying to burrow
in sand in bottom of pitfall trap along small,
short stream in sandy wash bottom just
below the spring. Habitat is steep sided, barren
(burned piñon-juniper woodland) canyon with
sandy & somewhat rocky wash at canyon bottom.
Some piñon pines, oaks, & shrubs nearby.
