Abstract

Eugene Amandus Schwarz (1844-1928) was an important figure in American entomology, especially in the work of the United States National Museum and the United States Department of Agriculture. His papers concern the taxonomy and biology of insects, especially the Coleoptera, and include correspondence and diaries of Schwarz for trips to Florida (1876, 1919), Cuba (1903-1904), Texas and Arizona (1898 and 1901-1902), Guatemala (1906), Panama (1911); diaries and detailed letters listing itineraries of Shannon; biographical information on Hubbard and Schwarz; and notes and miscellaneous publications. This folder includes loose leaves with diary notes from a field trip to Arizona, with stops in New Mexico, starting on May 25, 1901, and ending on August 17; "USDA notes" showing breeding numbers, package numbers, plant names and localities; and correspondence related to specimens.
