Jed Paperpuss and I saw seven Batrachoseps out on mossy rocks in the seeps on the south side of Highway 140, just across the Sweetwater Creek bridge. The salamanders appeared to be out foraging and were found between 6:30 and 8:30PM. I also found an Ensatina eschscholtzii xanthoptica under a rock below one of the seeps. I collected two of the largest Batrachoseps and the Ensatina.
Ensatina - SMR #21
B. dialotica - SMR #22, 23
