Daphnia pulex [water flea] - very abundant and very large in size Copepods - Ghost larvae [ghost shrimp larvae] Whirligig beetles Eggs of Hyla [tree frog] Also eggs of unknown amphibian apparently attached to a dead twig. Eggs very dark; slightly larger than large Hyla eggs. Indivi- dual coats of jelly obvious but the dozen or so eggs were in one mass. At first these were taken to be toad eggs. [Drawing of eggs on twig] (April 2nd - newt or salamander larvae were noted to-day in tray in which above eggs were placed along with other collections. It is likely they are hatched from these eggs (Triturus? [newt]) but may have come from some other source. Identified as Ambystoma macrodactylum [underlined] [long-toed salamander].
