Mayhew 1960 Journal Mar. 7 Dale Dry Lake area, San Bernardino Co., Calif. hibernating. Probably only those animals that hibernated in exceptionally good locations have come out of hibernation yet. It was interesting to note that relatively few young animals were seen today. We left the collecting site at 14:10. Plants seen in Olsom between Dale Dry Lake & 29 Palms were as follows: Dithyrea californica a borage Oenothera deltoides Astragalus sp. Alonia villosum Lupinus sp. Isomiris arborea Brassica sp. Rafinesquia californica Hymenoclea salsola 2 unidentified Malacothrix californica species. Nama lemiscohum Oenothera claviformis Plagiosothyx or Cryptantha Oenothera triplex Many of the hillsides in the southern portion of Joshua Tree Natl.
