Abstract

These lists describe photographs taken on Kure Island with the Project Camera for the Pacific Ocean Biological Survey Program. Each sheet is headed with a roll number, followed by a numbered list of photographs with a short description of subject matter, usually including location and day (sometimes to indicate the age of the bird e.g. number of days old). They detail 30 rolls of film. Subject matter includes birds, sharks, and vegetation plots.
