- Ambystoma gracile [underlined] [Northwestern salamander]
June 8 [1942] Ted Hart reports seeing many
egg masses in "Alligator Creek",
a tributary to Jordan River, West
Coast.
In the area noted the creek is slow
moving + meandering through a
meadow; very little current
is evident.
When surveyed by water engineers
many large larvae were present; hence
the name "Alligator"
One egg mass collected contained
the green algae commonly found living
the capsules but no larvae were
present. Apparently hatched, yet
jelly was quite firm, contrary to
usual condition at this stage.
Triturus [underlined] [newt] was also seen + collected
Hyla [underlined] [tree frog] also seen.
Salamander egg masses were also seen
in some numbers in another "meadow"
area where shallow water was standing.
