Field notes | Transcription of notebook 85 of K. H. L. Key's field notebook collection in the Australian National Insect Collection (ANIC). The collector was Lew Chinnick, on the 'Central North-West Expedition' of the ANIC, accompanied by Ray McInnes, John Dowse and D. D. Westall, as well as C. S. Hale between Giles and Alice Springs.
