Willis 1949 Rana aurora - 1- Aug 15 Big Lagoon, Humboldt Co., Calif. - I oddly colored individual found in a meadow at the E end of the pasture S of the Spruce Forest E of camp (see journal p. 116). The area was full of Mimulus and Ranunculus. I have seen these frogs in nearly every semi-aquatic environment hereabouts. I took a number of them in mammal traps set in the spruce forest under Shunk Cabbage and Carex, even on logs. I have seen them among the Sedges etc., and Potamogelon in the marsh area at the south end of the lagoon. Sept 1 3 mi N Willow Creek, 700 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif. - I quite large individual with a great deal of the disease "red-leg" found along Raccoon Creek just below camp (about 100ft downstream from where I took 2 Rana boylii a few days ago). This animal was not particularly active; it was away from the water, in a little glade of moss covered stones with lots of alder and maple leaf litter. The immediate overhead cover includes Broad-leaf Maple, Western Syringa and the wood ferns (Aspidium rigidum). So it is now only morning 7 a.m. - I suspect this location is permanently shady.
