Mayhew 1961 Journal 35. June 2 Northern Baja California, Mexico other animal (spider?) had collected them. Two Uta meernsi also were collected from beneath granite flakes. That night the zipper on my sleeping bag broke, so I slept in the front seat of the Trawlall. Drove 100 mi. today. June 3 This morning was quite warm, so we really looked for Sceloporus orcutti in cement from 0800 to 0930. During that time the air temp. (30°) ranged from 21.0 to 23.5°C. We saw 6 animals but were unable to capture any. I have never seen such spooky animals. They would disappear over a rock while we were still over a hundred feet away. In the Rivside area they move from crevice to crevice in the same rock pile until they get in one that is too deep for us to work, or until we capture the animal. At this site, however, they would run over 2 or 3 rock piles until we completely lost them from view. I've never tried to capture more exasperating lizards in my life. As we drove the 12 miles back to Remorosa after 0930, we saw 7 adult + 2 juvenil S. orcutti. We were able to capture 1 adult or, but this took us a considerable period of time.
