General Account
650 St., North Side of Claremont Campg, a,
Berkeley, Alameda Co., Calif.
Trapped higher up the hillside
than on Mar. 14, but in the same
general area.
Set 15 mouse traps. Four in
Microtus runways where I took nothing.
Two on large flat rocks in which I
took a ♀ Reithrodontomys megalotis
longicaudus. Three were set under
Artemesia on open, gravelly, dry
ground. In one of these took a ♂
Perognathus c. californicus (#18). Six
were set in the mouths of small
burrows ranging from 1"-2½"in
diameter. In one under the edge of
a large rock took a ♂ Perognathus
c. californicus (#20). In another in
Artemesia on sparsely covered part
of hillside took ♀ Perognathus c.
californicus. (#19). At the mouth
of a small burrow about 1¼" diam-
eter took one ♂ Reithrodontomys
megalotis longicaudus. He was alive,
only caught by the tail, so I took him
home but he only lived for 4 days.
