Valerie Ernst, Shirley Hill, David Reuther
& I left UCR at 0625. We collected
Uma inornata in Palm Springs Panorama
from 0720 to 1120 on our way to
Glamis. We captured 24 Uma and 1
Phrynosoma m'calli at this site.
We reached the Highline Canal at 1345
and immediately began to look for P.
m'calli along the road. The air temp.
(1 meter) at this time was only 30.0°C.
We looked for P. m'calli on one pass
between the canals (from 1345 to 1545).
We captured 9 live P. m'calli and saw
3 DOR's. Then we looked for Uma
notata in the dunes from 1600 to 1815,
we captured 40 of them and 3 Urosaurus
gracilissimus. We might collected on the
road between Glamis and the Highline
Canal from 2000 to 2205 (26 miles).
We collected 8 Coleonyx variegatus
during this period.

We looked for P. m'calli between

& found 2 DOR's that had been killed
today and 2 that had been dead for
some time. We drove out to the
end of the new pavement east of
Glamis this evening. An additional
