June 1 last night I set out a line of 42 traps
east of Camp 3 that there were on the
north slope about an hour's walk west
of the creek. It was no good, however,
and I killed off all on the hillside I could.

In the traps on the low bottom land:
♀ (Musca)
♀ Huba (Muscina)
There were the residents of these places but no flies.
On returning from my steel trap trip, I
found more species accounts. It was on a much larger scale than usual,
and I collected the ♀ (Musca) which
had been preserved for me at two days ago.
