Creator Transcript
  • Amphibia - 5 shallow margins supposedly to take advantafe of the warmer water, sunshine + possibly increased food supply. Larvae with hind legs about half developed are present in most parts; metamorphosing individuals in only a few; The majority are just showing hind limb development and will almost certainly be caught by the first freeze up which usually occurs in early September. Several small adults were seen in various places; whether or not they are young of the year is not known. Most liely they are progeny of last year, hence in their second year. [August] 29th [1943] Area mentioned previously was reexamined this morning after a day + night of heavy rain + one A. gracile [Ambystoma gracile - Northwestern salamander] was found under one of the small logs. Size 104 mm. [millimeters] Gill stumps still showing - no doubt it left the lake during the previous 24 hrs. [hours] Another specimen 120 mm [millimeters] in length was found under a log in dense woods about 10 yds [yards] from lake edge - no sign of gill stumps + more spotting Panther Lake - jelly masses of recently hatched Ambystoma gracile eggs were observed in upper end of lake loosely lying on bottom in shallow water.
