We have discovered an error in the last three lots taken from the net over the car.  The last one was divided between two bottles,a nd one of these was mixed with the first lot (apparently). The vial marked sta. 409 which contains a large ichneumon wasp is the reaining half of that lot.  The vial marked station 408 contains many [[underline]] Philonthus [[/underline]] and is properly labelled and segregated.  The vial marked sta. 403 is apparently a composite lot with sta. 409. 
II-17-37 After breakfast we packed the car and started for Kensworth.  The Savarian's seemed sorry to see us go.  We had a lot of trouble with the engine scarcely having enough power to pull the lightest hills.  It took us over three hours to go the 25 miles.  After lunch Ruth and I went to Newport for supplies.  We caught a few fireflies in the evening, but very little came to the light and sheet on the porch.  
II-18-37  In the morning Ruth and I drove to Kingston, leaving Ed to collect by himself.  We had tinkered with the car till it was running fairly well. As soon as we arrive I took the car to the garage, went to the bank, got mail, etc.  Just before tea, I went down to get the car, but found that there are some other things that should be done tomorrow.  [[scratched out]] Mr. [[scratched out]] Nethersol brought down another jar full of Scarabs for Ed.

II-19-37  The garage finally the car fixed up so that it now runs better than ever before.  Ruth had done the shopping for food, and had fixed my lunch.  I got started about 11 AM. and arrived at Kensworth about 2.  Ed had had more success than usual at sweeping, but it was still not very good. 
  After tea we went in search of Bruchids on a Leguminase plant near the house.  Found a small series.  The light and sheet attracted very little but small moths.  Fireflies were moderately common.  In the evening Marjorie Borell [[?]] and Mrs. Barbara Nurse arrived for the week-end.  We decided to go to Alligator Pond beach tomorrow for a swim.  
II-20-37  The girls went to Mandeville in the morning, while we started for Alligator Pond Bay to collect.  Ed found a succulent (Convohuilacea[[?]]) with leaf-hoppers; he was commissioned to try to find sugarbeet-leaf hoppers in such a place. 
[[underline]] Station 410. [[/underline]]
Beach at Alligator Pond Bay, southwest corner of [["A" written in left margin]] Manchester parish.  From dung took [[left blank]] Staphs, [["B" written in left margin]] [[underline]] Aphodius, [[/underline]] Histories, and ants.  Beating sea-grape netted several weevils, six Coccinellids of a new sp., ^etc. Found nothing not he beach except shells, but of these I picked up a large number for Ruth.  The girls arrived with the lunch, and later
