Beaver 1967 Alaska Journal 7 15 June (cont.) 0945 (cont.) to sample for Dipetron larvae. This I called sample #1. See results of samples in Diptera study book under sample # 10. Further south about 100ft., I took another sample (#2) from the top of a low polygon.. I then returned to the lab. to examine the contents of both samples. 1300 I went to the ARL library to find any Diptera literature that might be available. very few pertinent articles were found. The remainder of the afternoon was spent looking through sample #2. Only two larvae were found in this sample. 16 June 0800 started working over sample #1 this morning. I'm finding more larvae of Diptera and other invertebrates. I spent the rest of the day to evening working on the samples. Found Nematodes, Arachids, Trepulae sp. larvae and more chironomids. 1900 I left w/ camera and 350mm. telephoto lens to photograph some snow fields and others. I first then went to the coast and took two pictures of the ice (f/4@28sec, 55mm). Then I walked out onto the xendae on the east barrel area and photographed a Snow hunting [illegible] loaded longrange 67,
