Gullion 1949 Coluber constrictor -1- Aug 29 2 1/2 mi. N Willow Creek 500 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif. Certainly saw at least one individual and perhaps saw two in a brushy area at the split of the roads going to the Patterson Ranch and to Horse Linto Creek. Tried unsuccessfully to collect one but if two different ones were seen they were both about the same size. I seen clearly was about 18-20 inches long, with an unmarked olive-tan back. It vanished rather promptly into a hole. Aug 31 Willow Creek 500 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif.- I found a shed skin with its anterior end in a hole, on the edge of the walnut orchard N of Willow Creek. The area is one of dead dried grass in full sun, a few feet from a blackberry tangle to the south. Water is about 100 feet away.
