Mayhew 1961 Journal 81. Sept. 16 Palm Springs, Riverside Co., Calif. Phrynosoma platyhirsa - 2 (1 ad, 1 imm.) Phrynosoma m'celli - 15 (8 ad, 7 imm.) Uta graciosa - 15 (ad) Callisaurus draconoides - 4 (ad) Uta stansburiana - 1 (ad) Coleonyx variegatus - 9 (ad) Sept. 18 UCR, Riverside Co., Calif. Dick Tedford has just returned from a summer in Australia. He brought back 2 Amphibolurus pictus for me in his pocket. They are both males. They were collected in late August on Lower Cooper's Creek, 16 miles west of Etadunna Station (on the Birdsville track) in South Australia. They were collected from sand ridges at an elevation of about 100 feet. This location is roughly 20 miles east of Lake Eyre. They dig shallow burrows in the sand at the bases of plants. He captured these by digging them out by hand. He says Amphibolurus barbatus and A. reticulatus also occur in these sand ridges in large numbers, but A. reticulatus seems to prefer rockier country. These animals are being kept in a cage with Uta to compare them.
