Palm Springs, Riverside Co., Calif.
for UCR, which I reached at 1350. The
trip covered 139 miles. I caught the
following animals:
Uma inornata - 8 (7?, 1♀)
Dipsosepsa dorsalis - 7 (5?, 2 ♀)
June 3
Idyllwild area, Riverside Co., Calif.
I was able to capture several
lizards today while on a work
party at Azalea Trails Girl Scout
Camp (11 mi. N. of Idyllwild). Bobby,
Bruce and I hauled garbage and junk
from the camp to the dump south
of Bluebird Hill (S. of Idyllwild) in our
pick-up. Each time we drove the
dirt road leading to the camp we
caught a few lizards. At the end
of the work party we stayed at
the camp and caught some more
lizards. In all, the 3 of us
cought 25 lizards of 3 species. The
2 immatures were released, so we
returned with 23 lizards, as follows:
Sceloporus gracivus - 21(1?, 9 ♀) (1 imm. released)
Sceloporus occidentalis - 1? (1 imm. released)
Uta stansburiana - 1?
Two Sceloporus orcutti were seen at Dark
Canyon Campground (elevation 6000 ft.), but we
couldn't catch them. We quit looking
for lizards at 1600.
