Mayhew 1959 Journal 93. Sept. 9 Glamis area, Imperial Co., Calif. a distance of about 1 mile on the pavement. We quit right collecting at 2045. We had captured 26 animals of 5 species today. We drove 262 miles today. The maximum temp. today was 108°F., the minimum temp. tonight was 81°F. The humidity remained quite high because of the thunderheads that surrounded us. Sept. 10 We arose at 1220 because a strong wind came up out of the S.W., producing a terrible dust and sand storm at our campsite on the highest dune in the area. We drove east 14 miles to escape the sand, then camped again. We got back to bed at 0115. We arose again at 0615. There was no wind blowing but the sky was partly overcast. We gathered soil samples from 0700 to 0730. Then we began to look for lizards at 0730 (we had seen 5 at 0710 near our soil sampling area). We were able to capture a fair number by 1040, when we stopped looking. One lizard escaped from R17, so we replaced it with another animal at that time. We cought a total of 30 lizards this morning of 2 species:
