R. Zweifel April 27, 1958 Page longleaf longleaf 3.5 mi. NW Woodlake, Tulare Cr., Calif. 1790, & R. Zweifel Habitat area - small stream, flowing portion not over 3' wide, forking to 6' wide, seldom more than 6" deep. Water temperature at 9:15 A.M. 14.8 °C. Trees along the bank are as Q. wislizenii, Q. douglasii, Q. lobata (uncommon), Sambucus, Populus fremontii, Alnus incana. For the most part the stream banks are grassy to the water edge, very little in the way of sandy banks. Although the stream gradient is not steep, there are many large, angular granite rocks (as to 3' in diameter) in the bed. Stream transport is obviously not responsible - sites washed out or place so called downhill. 'Sycamore and willow present a few hundred yards downstream from where the first frog and three insects were taken.'
