	abstract = {The purpose of this study was to determine the botanical composition of black-tailed jackrabbit (<i>Lepus californica</i>) diets on six vegetation types:  black grama type, dropseed type, creosote-mesquite-grass type, creosote-mesquite-broom snakeweed type, open mesquite type, and mesquite dunes type.  The study was conducted from June 1979 to October 1979.  Diets were quantified using microhistological examination of fecal samples....Seasonal trends in dietary composition were:  dropseed species, early summer; whitestem stickleaf, croton, faint crown, during mid-summer; dropseed species, whitestem stickleaf in late summer; and mesquite during fall.},
