MacLean 1969 Journal 16 July Barrow, Alaska Fell behind on tanglefoots and had to count nearly the full set. Tossed all morning. After lunch we went out to change them and check the emergence traps - the best catch to date on both. In the evening I began counting these boards to avoid falling behind again. Pitelka was due to leave this evening, but jog kept the plane away. 17 July Barrow, Alaska Put up a Black guillemot brought in by Harry Brower, then counted tanglefoots for the rest of the morning. After lunch - seed samples and emergence traps. Pitelka managed to leave this evening. Celebrated by going to a movie in town. 18 July Barrow, Alaska More cold weather, with occasional snow flurries. Lab work in the morning, as the snow alternated with rain. In the afternoon the two vans departed. Dave and I drove out to the fertilizer plot to pick up the sticky boards there. Those from the plot were covered with Pedicia; those from the control plot have few Pedicia but more Prioraceae. Suggestive, but it could be due to differences in timing of emergence.
