C. ZIEGLER 1956 JOURNAL Sept 3 New Columbia Ranch, Marcella Co., Conk. +14 Caught by butterfly net as they had been at Caccam Morrow previously, there is 1 Dipos that we saw on the Hiway & East Basque Road just didn't stop in the grass beside the road when you spotted them with carlights & crept up with flashlights & got to get them - they just kept on going into the bushes or into holes. One little one was apparently CLOSE ENOUGH TO BE ALMOST caught by hand by John, but got away & couldn't be located again. At 7:30am we woke & happened to meet the fellows in charge of the breeding land just to north & south of Firebaugh - Swiss Colony Road, (New Colum. Ranch strays about a half mile South of this road) & Joyce said we might turn on their hand next time - it looks pretty good for Dipos with a few bushes but mostly short grasses plants with many open spaces. Soil is sort dusty sand - rather hard in some places with burrows dug in it. After we all got up traps are being put (4:00am)
