Batrachoseps pacificus major
March 7 28519, Lake Ave., Altadena, Los Angeles Co., Calif.
Dr. Stebbins, John Davis, and I collected
in the backyard of the lot. I
worked almost entirely in the
old concrete fish pool (now filled
with earth) where Dr. Stebbins
had obtained most of numbers of
animals some years ago. The
pool (see Dr. Stebbins notes - [illegible] year
for details formerly) is partially shaded
by eucalyptus trees, and the earth
filling it (to 4"-6" below surrounding
patio level) was covered by with a thin
layer of eucalyptus leaf litter. I
collected one large adult and a number
of small young from the pool (beneath
the leaf litter). (catalogue ACS#

March 7 Coolidge Ave. and Foothill Rd., Altadena, Los Angeles Co., Calif.
Dr. Stebbins, John Davis and I collected
individuals from beneath trash
and rocks in an unimproved
piece of land between the two
roads at their intersection.
Oaks were growing on the area
(rather scrubby and small).
