Boulevard, Ft. 1942 Scapanus Mar. 31 Burland Ranch, 1450 ft., 5 mi. N Corralitos, Santa Cruz Co., Calif. There were many mole ridges along an old roadbed thru the redwood forest east of the ranch buildings. The road was thick with dead leaves and partly grown over with wet chaparral. Weather cold and rainy as our party of 4 walked along it. Mr. A. C. Hawbicker picked up from the surface of the ground two dead moles within 50 feet of each other. He supposed that they had been killed of by coyotes; he said he had seen dogs catch moles by pouncing of upon the point of movement in a mole ridge. These two moles bore no toothmarks, but one had or fracture and hemorrhage at the base of the skull. One mole was in sufficiently good condition to make a skin; only the skull of the other was saved. No embryos were found and both specimens were doubtfully pronounced male.
