- Glinz Lake [underlined] July 1942
Plethodon [lungless salamanders]
July 17/42 [1942] - A single specimen was
collected under rotting log near
outlet of Glinz Lake, Sooke district.
They do not appear to be common; about
15 lads[?] spent an hour hunting up a
hillside before this specimen was seen.
Aneides [underlined] [climbing salamanders]
One youngster reported catching a
"dark coloured salamander" which later
escaped. From descriptions it seems
to be this species.
A very small + dessicated specimen
presented for identification also seemed to
be of this species - Found under stone at
[illegible word] Creek, near hatchery.
Triturus [underlined] [newt]
Newts were exceedingly abundant in
the lake in all areas but particularly
at the inlet + outlet. In the latter
place I caught 5 in one swoop of
the net. Most appeared to be females
ready to spawn (at this late date?). A few
males were seen but they did not seem to be
in nuptial dress. One small individual
(one year old?) 3 1/2 inches in length was found under
log by outlet stream.
