overnight.
Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles Co., Calif.
May 1, 1946
Left at about 10:15 a.m. accompanied by
Dr. Robert Stebbins & Mr. Cyril Stebbins.
Proceeded to Old Fort Tejon, 3350', Kern Co.,
Calif.; arriving at 11:45 a.m. Proceeded
to suffer part of same canyon we worked
the day before and continued to look for
Ensatina. Dug in the leaf mold beneath
Q. chrysolepis until about 3:45 with
no results. The three of us then pro-
ceeded down canyon about 1/2 mile, then
crossed over the north wall into the
adjacent canyon. This had a small
stream in its floor. Mixed vegetation,
mostly Q. chrysolepis and Aesculus
californica. We worked up-canyon
about 1/2 mile turning over fallen logs
and rocks, but no Ensatina were
found. Then worked back down canyon.
On the way down, collected 1 Batrachoseps
attenuatus (1685) and 2 Enneacaea gilberti
(1686+7). See species accounts. Returned to
truck at about 6 p.m. Ate supper in
Yerba Man, returned to Sherman Oaks
for the night.
