Excerpt from Fauna of the Aleutian Islands and Alaska Peninsula, Vol. 61: With Notes on Invertebrates and Fishes Collected in the Aleutians, 1936-38 A report on so great an area as the Aleutian Islands and the Alaska Peninsula, to be comprehensive, must include data col lected by many persons. While I was preparing this report, at a time when Ira N. Gabrielson and Frederick C. Lincoln were preparing their comprehensive work, Birds of Alaska, Dr. Gabrielson kindly lent me his field notes of Alaska trips. With his own notes Dr. Gabrielson also supplied field notes of Frank Beals, who was in the Aleutians in the 1940's for the Fish and Wildlife Service, and a few notes of Douglas Gray, who made some fine observations in the Aleutians. Immediately after issue of this Fauna, Dr. Gabrielson noted that several observations were attributed to his notes whereas they should have been credited to Frank Beals; somehow, in the compilation of many observations the original sources of the field notes were confused. Dr. Gabrielson points out that his field work in the areas concerned covered the following periods: June and July of 1940; late September and early October of 1941 August of 1943; late July to mid-august of 1945; and June, July, and August of 1946. Where records outside these periods are attributed to Gabrielson's field notes, they should be cred ited to Frank Beals.
