Journal March 7 582 Meadow Drive Place, Pasadena, Los Angeles Co., Calif. Drove to Moore Estate and met John Davis. We collected some Batrachoseps on the estate grounds (see species account), met Dr. & Mrs. Moore, and were shown the bird specimen cases in the basement quarters of the house. The collections are packed in readiness for moving the entire collection to Occidental College. John Davis described a large Batrachoseps which he feels sure was a B. major, which he found, but did not collect, on the estate. It was not in the place previously found when we looked for it. If he encounters it again, he will preserve it. If this is actually a B. major, it will provide a record farther up in the hills, above the alluvial flats, than I know of to date. March 7 Monterey Pl. and Aldine Ave., South Pasadena, Los Angeles Co., Calif. Together with John Davis we drove to Berry Campbell's reported area of sympatry between Batrachoseps alternatus and B. pacificus major. We were able to find only alternatus (see species account)
