Some of these collections are of potential interest and importance, but without more preceise locality data their value is greatly diminshed. Consequently, I'm enclosing the following 1:63,360 quads which I would appreciate having returned to me after the localities noted have been plotted on them by reference to the original field materials:

Charley River A-2 quad. (localities KPO 47, 1008, and 2217)

Charley River B-3 quad (locality KPO 2034) Karluk C-4 and C-5 quad. (localities ALP 668, 670, 671, 702, 703, and 705)

Karluk D-5 quad (locality ALP 701?)

Iliamna C-2 quad (localities KEN 47, 56, 58, 528)
