Aug. 5
Glamis area, Imperial Co., Calif.
Colonyx - 11 (6 ad ♂, 2 ad ♀, 3 juv.), 3 released (+1 DOR)
Crot. wilczeki - 1 (juv. ♀)
In addition, data were obtained from 4
DOR Callisaurus draconoides. Since 18 were
released, of 4 kept animals were young, we
brought 28 lizards back to dissect. 3 DOR
were kept for reproductive data (1 Colonyx,
1 Phrynosoma wicalli, 1 Callisaurus).

monthly sample at this site. We
looked for lizards from 0720 to 1035.
From 0720 to 0830 we looked just

Palm Springs Panorama. The vegetation
