Notes
I found this gravid female along a small creek. I find a good number of juvenile infernalis at this locale, but this is the first large adult.
Pseudacris sierrae, Rana boylii and Rana aurora intergrades occur naturally at the locale, and, unfortunately, I just found a large adult Rana catasbaena.
