Amphibians of Angelo Reserve  (1985-1995)

author(s): Ken Mierzwa
description: Visual encounter surveys were conducted on January 23, 1985; February 14-21, 1986; October 16-17, 1992; and March 12-13, 1995. The greatest effort was concentrated within Douglas fir forest, especially along Skunk Creek and lower Elder Creek, and in the grassland openings. Cover objects were turned and replaced. Most work was done during the day, although some limited nocturnal searches were also conducted. The 1986 sample was conducted during sustained heavy rainfall and flood conditions. Animals were counted and released. Location and habitat type were noted. Representative examples were photographed for documentation.
