Data recorded include station number (no.), date, machine, turns, correction, depth, shot or lead, bottom, bottom temperature, number of thermometer, correction, corrected temperature, air temperature, surface temperature, drift, trawl or dredge, sounding wire readings, dredge rope readings, serial temperatures, and general remarks. Some notes on specimens caught are included (type and quantities of fish or other marine life such as crustaceans, urchins, squid, and mollusks). Localities are not listed in this volume, but the albatross was known to be in off the coast of Mexico, then bound for the Pribilof Islands, then in the Strait of Juan de Fuca (based on the history of the ship's activities).

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. Maps for Saint Lucia and Dominica are included and are annotated to show locations of stations and route taken. Stations visited include station 205-260 (205-231, Saint Lucia; 235-260, Dominica). Examples of localities visited on these islands include Dennery and Milette Ridge on Saint Lucia and Boery River and Roseau on Dominica. Mention of rock samples taken at Dominica and quantities of insects taken on various islands on page 102. “General Index” on pages 104-115 and “Index to Insects” on pages 116-118.

content: This field book contains field notes of collections Stelfox made from 30 July 1938 to 20 December 1939 (with two notes from 29 January and 2 April 1940) in Ireland. Most specimens collected were insects, primarily hymenoptera. Other types of specimens may have been collected. Stelfox lists the name of the specimen, date collected, sex, quantity, sometimes remarks on the weather, location, sometimes specific type of environment, sometimes remarks about which specimens he would like to collect, sometimes additional information. Localities include, but are not limited to Bunduff Strand, Glenade, Killoughtin, Talbotstown, Glenasmole, Riverdale, Loch Damph, Sallins (Na Solláin), and Athdown. 'R.C.L.P' following a name signifies that specimen were seen and verified by D. R. C. L. Perkins, F.R.S. A letter from Irene Briscole is inserted at page 269. A postcard from Professor Paul Marechal to Stelfox in French with identifications and a postcard of Damph House and Loch Torridon are inserted at page 173.
