Hanken, James 1976 Journal Western Hills Motel, Sanderson, Val Verde Co., Texas 6 July little rain yet this summer season. Cave Creek Dry the Station is dry as is So. Fork Yellow the parking area. Some of my favorite cattle tanks for collecting toads are dry or nearly so. In the afternoon a storm came up which held more dust than rain and while night driving the road to Animas later in the day we were able to find only one Scagliopus and four Bufa, two of the latter in a small puddle beside the road in Animas. My favorite streetlamps in Animas for finding toads had only one; presumably the high winds and lack of insects were somewhat to blame. Returning to the Station that evening we joined John Miranda, a grad student of Howard Topoff's at CUNY, and two assistants in their search for army ants. We left the Station at around 9AM and continued essentially straight then to Sanderson, doing a bit of night driving on Hwy 90 bet Marathon and
