Abstract

This catalog lists shore fish collected in 1930-1935 by William Beebe. Numbers span from 9350-9500, 9896-9906, and 25001-25287. Records generally list [catalog] number, name of species, and date collected; some also provide locality, measurements, and other information. A note on the cover indicates that specimens were collected in Bermuda. Where provided, specific localities include Nonsuch [Island] and others. One 1932 record is from St. Lucia. Arthur Tucker is listed as collector for some specimens. It is uncertain whether this catalog was generated in the field.
