Bufo punctatus - one small specimen from under Jim Pattais tent on a cleared flat above the river bed.
Rana (pipiens group) - one nearly completely metamorphosed individual from a tributary of the stream bed which drained into the main stream bed. There were many large tadpoles in the pools of this tributary but this was the only recently metamorphosed fully metamorphosed frog seen. Taken by John Wright for frozen tissues & voucher specimen.

Kinosternon sonora iense - one small individual found by John Wright in a small pool of the tributary feeding the larger but dry stream bed. John saw two other larger specimens in a larger pool of this same tributary.
