Uma inornata here from 1620 to 1825.
We caught 22 animals (3 or 7 ?,
12 [illegible] immature) at this time.
We reached UCR at 1950 after
driving 372 miles on this trip. Maximum
Temp. today was 110°F.
Total animals caught on this trip:
Uma inornata - 24 (12 released)
Uma scoparia - 22(12 released) Cnemidophorus tigris-1

Tony Roth & I left UCR at 1250

was 39.0°C, substrate temp. (blacktop)
was 50.0°C. Six Phrynosoma m'celli
were caught between then and 1834.
Sundown occurred at 1847. Several
