content: This field book is a diary from 13 October 1928 to 14 February 1929 documenting Graham's field collecting trips to Li Chuang (currently Lizhuang), Yachow (currently Ya'an), Min River Valley north of Suifu (currently Yibin), and the Suifu vicinity. Graham provides a narrative description of daily activities including amounts and types of specimen he and associates collected or purchased. Graham collected mammals, birds, insects, snakes, fish, "water snails", fossils, and possibly other specimen. Mammal numbers range from 122-187; mammal skin numbers range from 127-130. Locations in which Graham collected include various localities near and including modern day Lizhuang, modern day Ya'an, Min River (a tributary of the upper Yangtze River), Chang Lin (Changling), and modern day Yibin. Graham often includes altitudes of localities where specimen were found. Descriptions of some specimen are occasionally provided. Graham also collects artifacts and conducts ethnological and anthropological research during this trip. No scientific names are provided.

content: The notebook documents entomological field work in Florida and Mexico, 1905 - 1908. There is expressed doubt whether the creator was H. G. Dyar. Entries discuss collecting trips. Entries vary greatly in length; some are only one line, others half a page. Entries cover details about habitat, weather, flora and fauna (types of insects and phase of development) observed, colleagues with whom worked (usually by last name), travel details (routes, mode of travel, distances,accommodations), specimens collected, and insect characteristics. There are sketches of insect anatomy. Collecting locations include Florida (Key West); Mexico (Orizaba, Córdoba). The second half of the notebook is blank.

label: Abstract

content: This field book contains John Murdoch's catalogue on natural history and ethnological collections made by the Point Barrow Polar Expedition, 1881-1883. Collections are from Point Barrow, Alaska and other Alaska locations between approximately 15 October 1881 and August 1883. Both natural history and ethnological collections are combined into one list. Natural history collections contain a wide variety of specimen and does not seem to have a focus or scope. Most or all specimen are Animals, especially mammals, but also include some aves, and possibly other animals. Recorded are collector, specimen / object number, date, article (what was collected), and locality. Some specimen names are in another language, possibly in Iñupiaq. Numbers range from 1 to 1749.
