Abstract

This field book contains field notes of collections Stelfox made from 29 June 1957 to 18 May 1958 in Northern Ireland and perhaps the Republic of Ireland. Specimens collected or observed are mostly insects, primarily hymenoptera, but botanical specimens are also included. Stelfox lists the name of the specimen, date collected, sex, quantity, sometimes remarks on the weather, location, sometimes specific type of environment, sometimes remarks about which specimens he would like to collect, sometimes additional information. 'R.C.L.P' following a name signifies that specimen were seen and verified by D. R. C. L. Perkins, F.R.S. Localities include but are not limited to Greencastle Point, Dunard Lodge, Sliddery Ford, and Tollymore Park. Clipping inserted at page 75. Pages cut out at the end of the journal.
