Mayhew 1963 Journal 2. Feb. 20 Palm Springs, Riverside Co., Calif. Time Number Seen 1230 1 1235 2 1240 2 1245 1 1300 1 1320 1 1330 1 1335 1 1340 1 1350 1 1400 1 1425 2 1430 2 1435 3 1445 3 1515 1 We quit looking for lizards at 1530. Most of the day was spent driving along the roads in Palm Springs Palmoresca. Vegetation is becoming rather lush there again with all the water they are using to keep the sand from blowing. We saw a total of 50 Uma inornata (we caught 16 of them) and 1 juvenile Diposaurus dorsalis. I was surprised to see Dipsosaurs out so early in the season. This is the only one I have ever seen active in February.
