Rana sierrae
Sage Horn Creek, Nevada Co., Calif.
Oct 4, 1953
The following transcribed from Bob Hoffman's
field notes for Oct 4:
2:30 P.M Went out hunting frogs along creek.
Adults found along shallow (not steep) banks,
where current is moderate and in adjacent
potholes. Young adults also found along
small tributary creeks.
Tadpole found only on potholes adjacent
to creek - mostly fairly deep & with silt &
significant matter on the bottom.
On 1 side of creek, where tadde were
collected this way in all 4 potholes,
there are now tadde only in # 3 which is
the smallest & has least silt, etc., of
the 4. There are a great many tadde; they
are smaller than those collected upstream.
