beginning to pile up - 40 to 50 of them,
spread out on all of the pans.

ago) are still producing. that means many
samples were discarded too soon. these lar
produced >30 Pedicia and 4 Trioncer
larvae. the last batch produced no
tipulids but many chloronias, in an area
showing sign of old disturbance. May be

4 August
Barrow, Alaska
Put new batch of 500 cores in
the funnels, then spent most of the
morning hands picking the central marsh
batch. Found 4 additional larvae -
: berlese's extracted 16, or 80%. Watched
carefully for small larvae, but still found
none. there may be an obligate diapause
in the egg stage, so that this year's eggs
have not yet hatched.
After lunch drove Charlie our to
Shooting Station, then returned to write
abstract for Alaska AAAS meeting. Gus
began acting up worse than ever - spent
the evening trying to clear our the damn
gas.
