Present were Sceloporus and Gerbontus (see catalogue), Batrachoseps, Rana boylii and Bufo. It is possible that Triturus are present in Tres Pinos Creek in digger pine delt.

Again just 1 mi. outside Monument E entrance collected on sandy river banks and in willow-ole woods among seeps adjacent to stream. Totle 4 Anniella, 1 Contia, 1 Eumeces gilberti, 1 Eusatina, 13 Ancides, Batrachoseps. Next stop in lower part of Pacheco Creek in SE corner of Santa Clara Co.
