#2.
June 4, near Smith Creek Cave, 5,800 ft,
Mt. Moriah, White Pine Co., Nevada
In a trapline of 100 traps set on the flat
just east of camp I caught the following
Dipodomys. The number of the trap, sex
and association is given. In the case
of the rat caught in trap #42 I am not
sure that it is of the same kind as
the rest - It has been prepared as a
skin, however so that positive identification
can be assured.
