June 29 Pine Creek, Clwyd National Forest, Clwyd Co., CA (cont.)
the stream and another juvenile/subadult at a point farther
upstream next to a small cascade (37.38528N,
118.67888W [WG584, 28m asc..], 2152m elev). cl went a
little upstream from here but found nothing more. cl
returned back to where cl found the first Salamanders,
about an hour later, and swabbed the juveniles. As cl
was walking back upstream to release them, cl found a
large adult female salamander on a rock in some grass along
the stream, and got swab samples from it, too. Although cl
only found 10 Salamanders, the habitat seems fairly
extensive, so the population may be much larger. Much of
the stream is heavily vegetated, so parts of it may be less
suitable for the salamanders. cl flash-froze all swab
samples at 11:45 PM.
