Description Letter from Philip A. DuMont to Martin L. Grant regarding suggestions to the "Check-list of Iowa Birds", December 7, 1962. The letter details several suggestions DuMont has for Grant's proposed check list of birds, including the use of the full name for each species, omitting the former names of species, eliminating names and initials after the scientific name, and adding a habitat symbol to the status of the bird.
