Canti, Blair 1975 Journal Green fields, 7000', Howth Mts, Nye Co, N.C. July 22 We set 3 Trap lines, trying to follow The old journal of microps localities, one line going through a sage flat, two bordering the meadow, near the ditched lined with sage. It was an ideal night, no moon till 1:00 Am or so, little wind, otherwise clear. We set 65 traps, one line being cut short by the presence of 3 bulls in the meadow. Later at dusk we saw a herd of 7 or 8 horses in the middle of the meadow. It rose in the 50's at night. July 23 Caught 2 paroxygus in 65 traps, indicating low Kofast abundance - a thorough walk through all the flat habitat, sage and grass, around the site revealed no holes at all, but alone microps mound complexes or solitary holes. Despite the great opposed and solitude of this comp site, it doesn't appear to be a currently active microps locality. Repeating the performance of yesterday wouldn't serve my purpose one to keep up on this picturesque site, but I would like a few more specimens, so I'd better move on to the next locality.
