Greene, H. 1981 11 July (continued) [illegible] We found 3 Phrynus douglasi in a fairly small area (~10-15m on a side) bordering on the rocky outcrop. First was a F ~80mm TL that was in full sun at the edge of an ant mound & very hard to see. Second was a small M (38+12 mm) that I found when it ran a short (~1/8") distance on the rocky outcrop. This place was ~2 m from a [illegible] displaying S. graciosa, which I collected. The third P. douglasi was on the shady side of a rock, ~.5 m from an ant nest. According to Kristine, each of these was near a red ant (Pogonomyrmex) nest, but their faces and the other Phrynus scuts she checked here contain another black & red ant.
