Hoffmeister 1941 Itinerary Sept. 14 (cont.) Waddell Creek, Santa Cruz Co., Calif. bracken, California bay, and a few Douglas fir. A few traps were set up in the redwood grown canyon in habitat in which I expected to catch Peromyscus truei. The catch was Peromyscus californicus 1♀, 1♂, and 1 Neustichus. The shrew mole was caught in an oatmeal baited trap placed alongside a fallen, decayed redwood log which laid among bracken and poison oak. The animal was caught across the back and was apparently attracted by the bait. In examining the stomach, I found considerable much "ground-up", unidentifiable food material. On the evening of Sept. 13 and also during the day of the 14th I heard a few Entomias mericami but saw none. Sept. 21 Strawberry Canyon, nr. Forest Exp. Plot, Berkeley, Alameda Co., Calif. Set out 19 museum specials and 5 rat traps last night, among blackberry, poison oak, etc. Lost 1 trap and caught a Neotoma fuscipes by foot in rat trap, but when I attempted to remove the trap + animal from the runway of the house, the wood-rat (still alive) pulled out + got away. In the 18 museum specials found, cought 1 Reithrodontomys 1♂ 3 Peromyscus truei 1♂, 2♀ 5 Peromyscus californicus 1♂, 4♀
