L DICKER 1958 (June 29 cont.) clanage to where it fell off into a huge canyon. Looking down we had a good look at a gray fox which trotted by. We collected one green hybrid, shot a bunch of [illegible] and collected 1 beautiful gray hybrid with lemon yellow on the underside of the femora which matched perfectly the granite rocks of that area. The one we caught we only saw because we caught a glimpse of movement on a rock & then couldn't see what we had seen until we scrutinized the rock very carefully. We saw 1 other individual of this species, but weren't able to catch him. Set 42 traps along moderately rocky pine forest slope + also 16 traps along the rocky wall of a small RR (abandoned) cut. June 30 Catch: Pteromyces truii - 4 from 42 traps 2 " 16 " Shot 1 Entamias along RR cut. In afternoon we set out 30 traps along this cut, 35 along rocky slope of pine forest. (cont.) next p) July 1 Catch: RR cut - Neotoma - 1 jwr. Entamia - 1 P. truii - 2 slope - P. truii - 2 In addition, shot 1 more Entamia (chickimoca)
