Abstract

This volume is a catalog of bird specimens collected on the Pacific Ocean from November to December 1965. There are 15 records total, with numbers from 15027 to 15041. The fields have no headings but appear to include field number, species, sex, time, location, date, gonads, weight and fat condition, remarks ("other data on McBee card"), and catalog number. Species include Phaethon rubricauda, Pluvialis dominica, Sula spp., and others. Collections were made in an area of the Pacific Ocean bounded approximately by 13° to 20° N and 161° to 173° W. The catalog number field indicates that collections were made by four collectors, identified by the initials JPT, PWW, BAH, and KEA.
