Feb., 26, 1926 - March - 7, 1926
spiny pocket mouse
Only four spiny pocket mice
were taken by me at this locality.
No. 11214 a large adult female was
caught along the upper edge of the
north mountain slope, by a hole
in the bank of a small dry ravine.
The hole was about two inches in
diameter. 11216 was caught close
by in a similar set. Nos. 11215 and
11244 were caught in a pile of dead
ferns which had been piled up
in clearing a path along the
upper edge of the coffee, on one
side of the path was temperate zone
and on the other was sub-tropical
zone. In the stomach contents of
No. 11214 were, seeds, old snail shell, and
oatmeal flakes.
