"CONT'D"
1' HERCULE. The compound is expressive
(10 DH/NIGHT) but, we think, probably
better. After setting up camp, we tried
the road to the S. which, P-2, passes through
some likely-looking Acanthodactylus habitat.
21 km. S. TANGER (by km marker on
HIGHWAY) we stopped in a mixed Pinus,
Quercus, Eucalyptus forest and collected:
ACANTHOACTYCUS ERYTHRURUS (1506, ?, 6.2g,
63+106 C), PSAMMODROMUS ALGIRUS (1507, δ;
5.8 g, 61+163 R), and a MALPAGON
MONSPESULCANUS (1508, 245g, 810+246 mm).
The Malpagon contained:
P. ALGIRUS (1508) 5.6 g, 58+127, HEAD WIDTH = 9mm
" " " 11g, 81+146, " = 12
In the late evening we decided
to try the area (≈ 7 km W. TANGER [AIR])
from which we extracted our first Moroccan
COUNBER. We were lucky, and a series
of PSAMMODROMUS ALGIRUS was collected:
1509 δ 11.25g 99+124R
1510 δ 10.25g 75+128B
1511 δ 11.25g 76+140R
1512 δ 4.7 g 56+125C
1513 δ 3.8 g 54+138C
1514 ? 3.9g 56+127c,
in which one specimen had a TṢ = 35°C and
a TṤ of 27°C.
