Tharald 1960 Thomnys townsendi p.3 Apr 14 at Elysin Valley, 5.3mi S, 0.3mi E Johnstownville 4320+ ft. [illegible] and only are mentioned above (5.0miS, 0.1mi E Johnstamvill) there soho at this locality over the only ones seen. This. A. M. I had one gopher in the three sets. His locality is down near the stream. The soil is very moist, very dark - virtually black, with some mica flecks in it. The area is pasture other areas of the field being in a grain. The hills surrounding the valley are forested & pine which comes down onto the valley floor course around the edge. The stream a few yards from here is shaded by willows, alder. This looks v similar to where we got T. bottae senatalis along Gold Run Creek. The rancher here remarked that he has kept up a constant war against gophers and that there were few of any left on his land. Specimen REG # 207 3.0mi S Johnstownville, 4440+ ft, Lassen Co, Calif This locality is on the Mountain Meadow Ranch - Jack Brown's Boys Camp. Yesterday I put out 4 sets just W of the road. Today I had a gopher (REG # 205). Yesterday I looked further for gopher workings in the woods and adjacent fields farther to the W. Graham looked over the pasture to the E but 0/o results. The soil here is fairly dark, somewhat sandy. The workings are in a small pasture & forest of oak and pine (mainly) around. To the east it is open down to the main pt of the valley. It appears that T. townsendi along the W side of the Honey Lake Valley range to the edge of the forest (T. monticola range) except where T. bottae has gained access as around Lassenville - down to Gold Run Creek.
