session in terms of species diversity. Between
Gila Bend and Hassayampa to the N were
found Pitvphiis melanoleucus (1), Bufo cognatus (4)
Crotalus scutulatus (1), Leptotyphlops humilis (1)
Colonyx variegatus (2) and Arizona elegans.
Pangraptolepis getulus was found 1.7 mi W of
the junction of 1 mi E of Tropcal. The
Huangahala Valley Sd of Tropicah produced
one Crotalus cerastes. W of Hegy in the vicinity
of Tropcal we drove many of the roads crossing
the agricultural area and turned up one
Crotalus cerastes, one Pangraptolepis getulus,
one Paryphosoma solare, two C. scutulatus,
and several Bufo cognatus found calling
from a flooded rice field along the road.
We returned to I-10 and continued

border at Blythe where we spent the
night.
