-• Arroyo Quito, Santa Clara County. I have been unable to find this locality on 

 any map examined. Possibly it refers to the present San Francisquito Creek, which 

 near Palo Alto constitutes the boundary line between San Mateo and Santa Clara 

 Counties, California. The Santa Cruz sheet (1906), U. S. Geological Survey Topo- 

 graphic Map of the United States, shows a large tract of land labelled Rinconada del 

 Arroyo de San Francisquito in the vicinity of Stanford University, Palo Alto and 

 Mayfield.
