June 2, 1925. Tortugas 
#25-1 (had June 1 on label). 
Collected wilhConger and Miller on and in front of first rocks below 
Lab. pier, w&st side of Loggerhead. 
1 larg e Mithrax hispidus found under large rock which I overturned. 
Miller got a lot of Clibanarius tricolor and Calcinus tibicen. Some amphipOds 
and isopods washed fromsea weed. A number of Mithrax coryphe from holes in rock. 
The fauna of the first rocks and in the eel patches off of them certainly 
seems richer in point of numbers than last year. The small sea urchins 
planted here have reached a good size, as large as any that Tennet used in his 
experiments last year,which Dr. Longley said indicates a year’s growth. Can 
it not be that it is the second year, the small half-dollar ones being one 
year old? 
Valentine brought in an Ocypode from the beaches.
