Although the surface funnel traps have been used successfullv bv Fitch (1951 and I960) in Kansas, the near absence of shade to protect captive lizards from the intense heat argued against their use. In all other areas lizards were collected by using dust shot in .22 caliber pistols. This meth- od proved highly successful in providing a rel- atively large series of specimens from the various .mas However, in most areas almost the entire population was taken in order to provide the needed series. At Temple Mountain because of the home-range study only a few lizards were taken until the summer of 1963. By shooting, a lew specimens were damaged for one or two of the standard counts made, as reflected in the variable numbers used in the variation graphs, but the increase in specimens made available by.
