part of foreleg and at lateral line below ear:
(2) 157-79-21.6-18.6 = 17 gms.
Molt: Most extensive of any of 4 young. A narrow
band, about 2 mm. broad along lateral line.
(3) 152-79-21.5-18.0 = 13.5 gms.
Molt: No definite ochraceous could be
noticed as in above 2 specimens although there
was a slight tinge of ochraceous to the hairs
beneath the eye; also, those around foreleg.
