Holmes, R.T. 1964 C. Pascielli 5. 9 June Barrow, Alaska Another display on top the ridge - and I am standing - it clear seen between it & the foot - Cintra fly - sssst note - we wind gliding giving its song - Recurring pursuit. On 10th - we were about 300 yds north - near fresh hole - & I was flying across to look for the SW corner of the hole (close to a pile of boulders). This species is more common now than I have seen it in 6 years. The specimen collected on the 7th - was a [illegible] - very fat all over body - including lower cervical region - However, nothing special was noted - no blood vessels to the subcutaneous region were observed The foot plate was the same texture as that of other parts of the body. One feature - now that some of the fat on the mid-lower Scraper-off - The flesh tracks were quite noticeable - in these areas a cross-wise of small ridges [illegible] ; found in an I'm alone the flat skin. This same kind is found in DS at this season, but I am not sure about other species. This may be common to all ?
