PERSONAL NOTES:
I have seen this species once, at the above photographed locality. It was the first morning of a three-week long trip and this low rocky hill just outside of Bahia San Carlos, Sonora seemed just the place to find A. burti. We found one in about 5 minutes, within the large bush at the bottom-center of the picture. Also seen on this hillside were several Uta stansburiana.
