Santa Rosalia to Isla San Marcos, Baja California Sur, Mexico
5 May We camped under moonlight. I stayed awake
for an hour and watched the clouds move
now and then below the moon. It's really
quite beautiful here at this time of year.
The temperature is perfect and the humidity
is low.
Isla San Marcos to La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico
6 May I woke up late, at 7:30, with the sun
already over the canyon and shining on me
through thin clouds. Doris had risen at
5:45, 15 min after daybreak, and photographed.
I spent the morning walking through the canyon.
I collected 2 Urosaurus, but no Callisauros.
I saw no Sceloporus this morning. I saw
two new lizards: Cnemidophorus tigris & C.
hyperythrus, and collected two of the
former. The boat picked us up at 11:00.
The total species list for my visit is:
Coleonyx smitaki
Coleonyx variegatus
Phyllodactylus)
Callisaurus draconoides
Sceloporus magister
Urosaurus nigricaudus
Cnemidophorus hyperythrus
