- Microtus richardsoni [underlined]
Mt [Mount] Revelstoke July 5, 1937.
Found some large runways
along a rapid mt. [mountain] stream.
" July 7/37 [1937].
Took an ad [adult] [female symbol] last night in a
trap set below a little waterfall
in a mt. [mountain] stream. This [female symbol] had
six foetuses of 14 mm [millimetres].
Cuttings in the runways +
burrows consist of Leptarrhena
pyrotifolia [underlined], aster, heliotrope
purple flowered solomon seal (Streptopilus
roseus) [underlined], Habenaria viridiflora, [underlined]
veratrum, Pedicularis bracteosa [underlined]
In on [one] place under a log
I found a cup-shaped nest,
made of dry grass, from this a
good runway led 6' to a small
stream, across it, through a
clump of willows, + into another
stream 12 ft [feet] away.
For a distance of 100 yds [yards] down
stream were occassional [occasional]
burrows + some cuttings.
In many places these were
under some boulder or under a
shelving bank protected from above
but in no sort of runway.
