R e Came fo Study Insedts; Found Mosquitoes Alaska’s mosquitoes compare fa- vorably in size an denergy with any found in the tropics. In fact, their abundance and perfection ‘are enough to impress an entomologist The entomolbgist is A. B. Krom of the Zoology department of In- diana University, who arrived here today on the Columbia after three months of collecting specimens and doing research work in the Intreior. His particular object of study was the synipidat, a class of gall-form- ing insects, Alaska species of which amazed Krom by its ability to with- stand temperaatures as low as 52 degrees below zero. Although de- structive of roses and other plants, the synipidat apparently are not abundant in the Territory, is the reassuring word brought down from the Fairbanks, Circle and Porcu- pine districts by Krom. Among the things collectedl ‘on his | sojourn in the north is a fine black beard. Why? The mosquitoes forc- ed him to grow some protection for his face.
