Notes

One of two immature Ensatina's found under some loose bark and logs in a wet, second growth redwood forest with a thick understory of bay laurel and tan oak. The very small bits of gold in the otherwise dark eyes place this individual within the integrade zone between the Yellow-eyed and Monterey Ensatina subspecies.
