and a Vire Siskin. Skinned in f.m.
after supper we went bat-hunting in the

gans.
June 1, 1946
Spent morning hunting Triturus in a
small ford Ward Russell found and told
me of yesterday. He took a Clemmys narmo-
rata crawling on a log at the ford's edge,
and noticed several Triturus lying on the
silt at the water's edge. I collected fifteen
in about 2 1/2 hours. After lunch turned over
logs, and found 3 Ensatina and 1 Triturus.
collected a garter snake from the creek adja-
cent to camp.
June 2, 1946
Hunted amphibians from 6-8a.m. Then
returned to camp and spent the day in
bed, as I felt ill. Caught 1 Gerrhonotus
(1757) under a log at about 7 a.m. Specimen
was so cold it was completely inert and
appeared lifeless. Found 1 Triturus and
1 small Ensatina in a canyon about 3/4
mile east of camp.
