Mayhew 1961 Journal 33. May 18 Palm Springs area, Riverside Co., Calif. We left "Granddaddy Dune" at 1530 and drove slowly down Varner Road toward Garnet. By this time Ima were beginning to be seen on the sand in the lee of bushes, so we cought several small ones & 1 large or along the road. We reached UCR at 1725 after a 124 mile trip today. Some of the smallest Diposaurus I have seen were captured today (3 of them 3 mi. N.W. of 1000 Palms), I don't know why they are still so small. The entire area covered today is extremely dry. Most of the perennials are in wilt. Some of the animals caught were quite thin, but others caught at the same location were nice & fat. We didn't see any adult ? Ima for a long time today. If we hadn't dug some of them out of the sand at the big dune, we'd have seen only one (which we caught). Adult animals caught today: Ima inornata - 14 (9?, 5?) Diposaurus dorsalis - 14 Crotaphytus wislizeni - 1 (?) Callisaurus draconoides - 1 (?) Cnemidophorus tigris - 1 (?) Urosaurus graciosa - 1 (?) Total - 32 Young caught: Ima - 15 Diposaurus - 8 Total - 23 56 animals were caught today. (Diposaurus was given away.)
