content: An inserted table of contents contains a full listing of localities and corresponding collector numbers. This field book contains a specimen list of botanical specimens collected from 12 July to 5 August 1946 in various locations within the Caroline Islands and the Mariana Islands. Collector numbers 25527-26153 are included. Occasionally, notes become long and narrative, and will sometimes include general descriptions of area vegetation. Specimen list includes scientific name, date, locality, collector number, and sometimes physical description of the specimen that includes its measurements, color, and other information. Mariana Islands localities include Piti (Comarianas Hill, Guam). Caroline Islands localities include but are not limited to Yap Island, Gagil Island, Palau, Arakabesan Island, Ngeanges Island, and Kapingamarangi Island. Inserted at page 186 and 187 is a list of Islets of Kapingimarangi Atoll (south to north). Correspondence to Fosberg from William W. Diehl (Mycologist) about 23 of Fosberg’s specimens is inserted at the back of the book.

content: The scrapbook was compiled by Lucile Mann, from materials gathered relating to a trip to Argentina and Brazil (1939), for the purposes of collecting and exchanging live animals with zoos in South America. Materials in the scrapbook cover sites throughout Brazil (Rio de Janeiro) and Argentina (Buenos Aires, Córdoba, La Plata, Lake Nahuel Huapi). The scrapbook appears to be arranged chronologically, and included news clippings, menus, photographs, passenger lists, postcards, original artwork (by Newbery),and advertisements for theatrical events. Journalist William H. Shippen of Washington D.C.'s Evening Star, followed the trip and wrote a series of general interest stories relating to it, which have been included. There are also clippings from Argentinean newspapers. Most photographs with captions. Subject matter includes: farewell dinner; leisure time by the pool on the ship to South America; Buenos Aires Zoo; Córdoba Zoo; La Plata Zoo; buffalo crate; informal images of expedition members and local officials (some identified); the loading of coffee on ships at harbor; general scenes of the local sites and cities visited; and a visit to the Angostura brewery.

content: This folder contains maps showing distribution and abundance of Puffinus griseus/Sooty Shearwater and Puffinus tenuirostris/Slender-billed Shearwater [Short-tailed Shearwater] based on at-sea observations for the Pacific Ocean Biological Survey Program. Because there is no explanatory sheet in the folder, the dates (February 1963 - August 1965), creator, and interpretation of the maps are based on other items in the same series, Series 27 in SIA RU000245. 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. Each symbol (square or circle) on the map represents one day's observations. The map legends provide additional information on interpretation of the maps.

content: This item documents Bailey's collecting efforts in Minnesota and Ontario, Canada in 1905 and field notes kept on trips to Michigan and Minnesota during 1907. The first 5 pages are from 1905 and the remainder of the book documents Bailey's study of wolves in Minnesota and Michigan in March and April of 1907. The field book is comprised primarily of specimen lists of plants and animals identified by genus and species. Common names are sometimes included in specimen lists. Bailey indicates gender of mammals taken from the field and sometimes indicates that fetuses are present in the specimen taken. The item also includes very brief lists from a few other states including Ohio and Wisconsin.

content: This field book contains field notes of collections Stelfox made from 20 August 1952 to 18 August 1953 in Ireland. Specimens collected or observed are mostly insects, primarily hymenoptera, but botanical specimens are also included. 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. 'R.C.L.P' following a name signifies that specimen were seen and verified by D. R. C. L. Perkins, F.R.S. Localities include but are not limited to Kitalown in Tallaght, Royal Canal, Glending in Kildare, Oldtown, Killoughter, Yellow Corrie, and Ben Lawer. Botanical specimens affixed to pages 49, 50, and 185, and inserted at page 142. Miscellaneous notes and memo from Max Fischer to Stelfox inserted at the end of the journal.

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.
