New localities for Lichanura roseofusca gracia in Inyo County, California
Turner FB. 1959. New localities for Lichanura roseofusca gracia in Inyo County, California. Copeia. 1959(2):172
This short paper describes 3 new localities for the desert rosy boa (Lichanura roseofusca gracia) in Inyo County. Two of the localities, Emigrant Canyon and Hanaupah Canyon, are located in Death Valley National Park. The author notes that the rosy boa's occurrence at elevations in the Panamint and Argus Mountains where there is some snowfall, suggests that they may eventually be found in the Cottonwood Mountains, and perhaps even farther north in the Last Chance Range (both also in Death Valley National Park).
