Diagnosis
Diagnosis. Individuals of this species are difficult to diagnose from Aptostichus atomarius and Aptostichus stanfordianus on the basis of morphological features alone (Figs 91-94) but can be diagnosed on the basis of a set of unique mtDNA site substitutions (see Bond & Stockman 2008). The species is restricted in distribution to northern Monterey Co. (California) localities west of the Salinas Valley (Maps 6, 7) and can be distinguished from geographically proximate populations of Aptostichus stephencolberti on the basis of its darker coloration (Figs 95-97) and absence from coastal dune habitat.
Description
Descriptions. Described by Bond (2008).
Distribution
Distribution and natural history. Aptostichus angelinajolieae is restricted in distribution to the Santa Lucia Range of Monterey County (Map 6), bounded to the east by the Salinas River Valley (SRV). The ecoregion is characterized as California Coastal Chaparral Forest and Shrub. As discussed in Bond and Stockman (2008) the DM (Map 7) predicts the areas with the highest probability of occurrence in the regions east of the SRV, with the valley likely serving as a barrier to dispersal. The few male specimens known were collected during the late fall through winter months (October-December, February), with one specimen collected in July that molted to the final adult stage a month later in August. Female specimens are frequently found on shaded, damp steep banks and road cuts throughout the region. Burrows are generally shallow comprising a white silken lined retreat, covered by a thin silk-soil trapdoor.
