Perognathus spinatus
May 17 Trimmfo, 1700 ft., Baja California
ramajo cenaza with a strip of it also
running along one side. The rest of
the inside was mostly bare sand with
a few orange trees. Set the traps mostly
around the outside and the rest at
brushy places inside. Caught 2♂, 2♀. Also
there were 2 Perognathus baileyi.
May 18 Same location
Set 50 live traps, this time up
a sandy wash and along its rocky bank,
mostly among ramajo cenaza and yerba
de la . These nights have been
brightly moonlit. Caught 1♂, 2♀.
May 19 Same location
Put traps around the brush fence of
the nearest rancho's cornfield. A narrow
wash and rocky bank above ran along one
side, and I put most of the traps here.
The field itself was mostly bare, with a
few large mesquites at the ends. This time
cought 4♂, and also 1 Peromyscus eremicus
May 20 Same location
Traps were largely in the wash, along
the rocky banks of the wash, or on the
hillside. Tried to spot them in front of the
mouse holes but without success. Moonlit.
Caught 1♂ and 1♀. Also had 1 Peromyscus eremicus
