1935. Heizer, R. G., obtained a small collection,
now in Univ. of Calif., at Uyak Bay, Kodiak June-Sept. 1935.
1935-1937.
Ulmer, Joseph, a German mining engineer, obtained during
these years a collection of plants along Steese Highway at Circle, Circle
Hot Springs, Bender Cabin and Porcupine Dome near Miller House.
Specimens were sent to Dr, H. STEFFEN, Konigsberg, who in 1936 published
a list of them comprising 70 species (Ein Beitrag zur Flora von Alaska,
Beih. Bot. Centralbl. 54, Abt. B) and in 1938 issued another list of 39
species (Zur Flora von Alaska. Beih. Bot. Centralbl. 58, Abt. B).
Specimens in Dr. STEFFEN's herb., a few duplicates in the author’s
herb.
1936. Moran,
R. V., collected May-June at Cache Creek, Yentna distr., and
in Aug. of the same year near Dawson. Collections in Stanford Univ.
1936. Jones,
George Neville, now assistant at Arnold Arboretum, obtained a
good collection of plants at Nome in July 1936. The Kvichak R. in
Bristol Bay, was also visited. Specimens in Univ. of Washington,
duplicates in Lund and other herbaria.
1936. Brink,
David, of the Univ. of Minnesota took part in the BRADFORD WASHBURN
Exp. to Mt. Crillon. He collected 65 species there. A list
of them is published by COOPER in Bull. Torr. Club 66 (1939) p. 455.
Determinations by Dr. J. A. STEYERMARK.
1936. Kol,
Elisabeth, Dr.. Lecturer at the University of Szeged (Hungaria)
during a trip to Alaska for the purpose of investigating the kryoplankton
of the glaciers collected 121 species of vascular plants. A list
of the species was published by Dr. E. GOMBOCZ (Botanikai Közlemények
37, 1940) who in the same place also published a paper about a supposed
new genus »Acroschizocarpus» collected by Dr. KOL.
This genus had, however, already been described earlier under the name
of Melanidion. Plants were collected in the following
places: Juneau (Mendenhall glacier, Mt Roberts), Columbia Glacier, Valdez,
»Fox Farm», Thompson Pass, Shoup Glacier, Tiekel, Chitina,
Kennicott, Fairbanks, Mt McKinley Park (Savage R.. Teklanika R.), Seward.
1936. Baxter,
Dow V., associate professor at the Univ. of Michigan, during
several years made investigations of the forests of Alaska, chiefly with
regard to their flora of fungi. Occasionally he also collected
vascular plants. For some time he worked in the neighbourhood
of Ketchikan. In 1936 he worked around Koyukuk in the Yukon valley.
He published a paper on these investigations: »Forest
