Stopped on the west face of Sierra de l Abra
mean the crest along the road. They
had removed a lot of flagstone-type
rocks from the area and there were many
other such rocks scattered around. The soil is
black and the whole face was hot. Saw
Sceloporus variabilis(?) in the trees and
on the ground and saw a couple of Cnemidophorus
sp. in the road out at the crest.
Continued east to the Ocampo road (Mex Hwy)
where it crosses the Rio Comandante. Worked
along the north side of the river collecting
and observing the following:
Cnemidophorus
Saw six,
Jim got one and I got one. They were in
the brush along the road above the river
along the river. Very hot and very fast.
Holbrookia
I saw one
along the river in fine gravel.
Ctenosaura
I saw two
individuals - one large one in the wash at
remains of a cement bridge and a smaller
one in vegetation along the river. Both had
well developed whorls of spines on the tail.
Sceloporus variabilis In the brush and
trees above the river on the crest of the bank.
