content: This folder contains maps showing distribution and abundance of Bulweria bulwerii (Bulwer's Petrel) based on at-sea observations from February 1963 through August 1965 for the Pacific Ocean Biological Survey Program. Distribution and abundance data are represented by symbols, numbers, and colors added to printed maps of the central Pacific Ocean. Each map records data from one calendar month, with one map for each month of the year. No year information is shown on the maps, although an explanatory page in the folder says that the maps represent observational data from February 1963 through August 1965. Each map may therefore represent data collected during that month in one year or more than one year. Each symbol (square or circle) on the map represents one day's observations. Symbols are color coded to represent number of birds observed, with the actual numbers written inside the symbols. The map legends and explanatory sheet in the folder provide additional information on interpretation of the maps.

content: This journal contains field notes documenting Richard Blackwelder's research in Saint Croix, Puerto Rico, and Jamaica from 28 October 1936 to 7 March 1937 to study insects, especially beetles. He also travels to Saint Thomas, Saint John, Mona, Dominican Republic, Haiti, and Cuba during this trip, but he does not collect specimen in these places. This journal contains 152 pages. Blackwelder provides descriptions of flora and fauna of his surrounding environment. He also includes elevations, weather information, and other observations. Abundance of insect genera is noted when applicable. Also, description on how specimens were obtained (ex. in cow dung; rotten fruit) is included. Page 54 contains a list of species on Puerto Rico recorded by Leng and Mitchler. Maps for Saint Croix, Puerto Rico, and Jamaica are included and are annotated to show locations of stations and route taken. Stations visited include station 315-434 (315-344, Saint Croix; 345-359, Puerto Rico; 360-434, Jamaica). Information for station 435 (Montague, Jamaica) and Station 444 (list of specimen received as gifts in West Indies (listed) on pages 125-127. Examples of localities visited on these islands include Pleasant Valley (Saint Croix); El Yunque Peak (Puerto Rico); Mammee River (Jamaica).“General Index” on pages 129-147 and “Index to Insects” on pages 148-152.

Cooper describes stratigraphy of sites visited (with sketches and measurements of some layers) and notes fossils found or commonly found at various levels. Fusulines, various genera of brachiopoda, and possibly other types of fossils were found. Fossils possibly from the Sakmarian stage of Permian epoch. Locations include but are not limited to Leonard Mountain, Hess Ranch, Decie Ranch, and Windmill Hill. The maps contain alphanumeric codes corresponding to a locality. Cooper uses these codes throughout his notes to refer to localities. Some coordinates are included. Pages 0442-0484.

Erdman's collecting notes focus mostly on fish (approximately numbers U-48-1 to U-48-137 included). Erdman occasionally notes weather conditions, coordinates, and details about specimens. Erdman's notes also document collecting or observations of other specimens such as coral, shrimp, crab, mollusks, sea mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians. Sketches of a variety of sea life and birds are included throughout the journal. Some specific localities include Al Khobar, Tarut Bay, Zaal, and El Azzizia. Erdman also includes observations and sketches of activities of local inhabitants and reference notes on fish.

content: This folder contains maps showing distribution and abundance of Gygis alba or Fairy Tern [Angel Tern] based on at-sea observations from February 1963 through August 1965 for the Pacific Ocean Biological Survey Program. Distribution and abundance data are represented by symbols, numbers, and colors added to printed maps of the central Pacific Ocean. Each map shows data from one calendar month, with one map for each month of the year. No year information is shown on the maps, although an explanatory page in the folder says that the maps represent observational data from February 1963 through August 1965. Each map may therefore represent data collected during that month in one year or more than one year. Each symbol (square or circle) on the map represents one day's observations, with number of birds observed that day written inside the symbol. The map legends and explanatory sheet in the folder provide additional information on interpretation of the maps.
