This area, in the Quartz Peak ' quadrangle (1988), is « 2 km south-southwest of the prominent cluster of communications towers on Black Mountain. Consistent with most other Gila Monster records for the state, this locality is east of -116 longitude at about °. Distances to the two closest records for California Gila Monsters reported by Lovich and Beaman (2007) to the location were ~ 38 km (Imperial Dam) and ~ 65 km (Blythe airport). Assuming that the sighting was unremarkable at the time, Haxel made a casual annotation in the margin of his copy of Jaeger (1957) The North American Deserts, next.
