Murray 1949 Miclotus californicus Sept 9 4 1/2 mi N, 1 1/2 mi E Willow Creek, 800 ft., Humboldt Co, Calif- In baiting the same trap line found one, definitely a daytime catcher, in lush green green grass quite close to this morning's specimen in grass (disc.) Sept 6 Red Mt., 5300 ft., 14 mi N Hayfork, Trinity Co, Calif. Caught what must be this sp. under a Ceanothus cordulatus bush. At the edge of a large very dry patch of it, but first downhill from thin Ponderosa pine, white fir, and cedars. No grass at all. Ground bare between bushes and beneath them except for a few dead leaves. The Ceanothus forms a thick surface covering. Ground dry, hard and gravelly. Comes closer to a habitat for Perognathus. Sept 7 Same location to other Caught 10" nearby in Ceanothus cordulatus, this time in the middle of the patch so as to leave no doubt of where he came from. Traps in adjacent coniferous forest and along water with no cover had nothing.
