Abstract

Measurements of leader and radial growth of paper birch (Betula papyrifera Marsh.) were obtained as part of a study of the biology of the spear -marked black moth (Eulype hastata (L.)) in Interior Alaska in 1958. In this study, which will be reported separately, the growth measurements were obtained to relate insect defoliation dates to periods of tree growth. Some radial growth measurements of white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) and quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx .. ) were also taken.
