Description
Excerpt from The Cruise of the Tomas Barrera: The Narrative of a Scientific Expedition to Western Cuba and the Colorados Reefs, With Observations on the Geology, Fauns, and Flora of the Region
To all the members of the expedition - especially to Dr. Carlos de la Torre - and to various specialists of the U. S. National Museum staff, I am indebted for valuable assistance. To Mr. C. T. Simpson I owe thanks for the identification of plants. Pi nally I wish to express my gratitude to Dr. Bartsch for his keen interest as well as his aid.
The large amount of material collected by the expedition is now being critically studied and the results will eventually be published in the Smithsonian Reports.
