Extract

Several blow fly collections were made in the vicinity of Fairbanks between May 28 and June 14, 1948, and one large collection at Anchorage on August 9, 1948. All flies were caught in screen-wire fly traps baited with liver or dead salmon. The material was identified by D. G. Hall, Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine, who also generously provided information concerning the possible importance of the various species of Alaskan blow flies.
