Davis. 1940, 29). Aug. 16. Old Fort Clatsop, 100', Clatsop Co., Oregon. miles of Astoria. The forest is mixed, with Sitka spruce the dominant tree about camp, and Tenga hetero- phylla dominant deeper in the forest. There is quite a bit of alder and white fir. Heavy undercow, of broken, sal-lal, Rubus laciniatus, and Symphori- carpus. The Rubus in some places is impenetrable, and the ferns are very dense. Just imback of camp there is a logging road, down which heavy logs are being dragged by tractor. South of camp is a large boggy area, overgrown with camas and Carex, and shaded by spruces. Water comes from a spring, which overflows into this area. Caught one Hyla.

The area about camp, to the south and east, is mostly farming, with bent grass the chief crop. The tide, flooding up the Lewis and Clark River to the east affects all the fields, which are crossed by tide sloughs. Aug. 17. Challin and I set traps in a grassy area about 300 yards east of camp. Dense growth of Xerophyllum and Carex, with occasional clumps of Rubus laci- niatus and Alnus rubra. Runnows were found beneath nearly every clump of Carex, and traps were set in these and surface traps were set in runs at the bases of X- Xerophyllum. In p. m., hunted Triturus in a pond about 200 yds. s. w. of camp. Pond about 60' x 20', knee-
