Departed. Washington 6 March 19 ^^ hy plane j San Jaan, Puerto Rico 7th 
to Martinique via St, Croix, Antigua and Hiia. deloupe , Departed 
Martinique 8th March and arrived Dorsiinica 8th March slightly before 
Remained in Dominica until the morning of $8 March when I joined the 
rest of the expedition members aboard the **Freelance”. 
Subsequent stops, for collecting, were made at Giiadelou'pe, Antigua, 
Redonda, Me%'ls, St, Christopher, Virgin Gorda and Tortola, the trtp 
terminating at St. Croix the night of l8th of April, I?'??. 
I estimate that between l'>000 to 20000 insects were collected, most 
of course, on Bominisa, The collection is particularly rich in 
Coleoptsra, Orthoptera, Dintera, and Microlepidoptera. Among the 
non-insects the collecting of millipeds was emphasised and much 
material In this group\^ ms obtained.
