NOTES 
1* A brief description of Bikar Atoll follows: 
This is a small irregularly diamond-shaped atoll oriented north and south, 
the next to the northernmost of the Marshall group. It is also called Dawson r-- 
and Pikaru To, It has relatively little land area and no irfiabitants. There 
are only three small wooded islets, plus several tiny sand or gravel bars, all ' 
on the eastern or vrindward reef. The largest, Bikar islet, is at the southern 
extremity, and the other two, Jaboemikku—to and Aiumeni-to, are at about the 
middle. Directly opposite these two islets, on the west or leeward side, is 
boat passage, curved and forking in the middle, about 30 yards wide. It is ' . 
several fathoms deep through most of its length but becomes rather shallow at 
the inner end of each arm. At low tide a strong current rushes out through this 
pass. Landings may be effected over the reef on the lee side of Bikar islet in 
quiet weather. There is no anchorage. 
The lagoon is fairly deep over most of its area, with a maximum of 12 fathoms, 
but has some shallow patches and coral heads* 
A small grove of coconuts has been planted on Bikar islet by Marshallese \ 
who periodically visit the atoll to catch turtles. The climate is really too dry 
for the palms to do well and consequently the nuts are frequently small and 
malformed. 
Sea birds of mar^ kinds are abundant, but the outstanding feature is tie 
great number of turtles that come ashore to lay eggs on Bikar islet. Rats are 
very cornnon on Bikar, but are of the relatively innocuous Polynesian variety,
