General Account.
Mar 14 600 ft, North side of Claremont
Canyon, Berkeley, Alameda Co., Calif.
Set 10 traps on south facing hill-
side. 7 on grassy part and 3 in
a gully where there was lots of Poison
Oak, Baccharis and Artemesia.
Traps on hillside were not sprung
but took two Peromyscus true gilberti
in the brushy gulch. One 8 and one
9 (#17). Set 2 rat traps in mouths
of old squirrel holes. In one of these
took 3 Perognathus c. californicus
(#16). The hole was about 3 in diameter
and fresh dirt in front of the entrance
indicated recent work altho the mouth
of the burrow was choked with weeds.
