註釋

The collection consists of 101 letters (handwritten and typewritten), 14 cards and seven photographs received by Schwarz between the years 1921 and 1957, and the incomplete typescript of Stingless bees. Many of the letters thank Schwarz for his book (Stingless bees), which he distributed to entomologists around the world. Others are responses to Schwarz's Christmas cards. Highlights of the collection include: Letters from William Beebe; five Christmas cards with hand-painted pictures of spiders by AMNH entomologist Willis J. Gertsch; and letters from the English entomologist George W. Salt thanking Schwarz for his kindness for the parcels he sent after World War II, while Britain was still enduring food rationing. Other correspondents include E.O. Essig, Caryl Parker Haskins, R.W.G. Hingston, Warwick E. Kerr, John H. Lovell, S.A. Rohwer, Myron H. Swenk, AMNH directors F.A. Lucas and Albert Eide Parr, and AMNH president Henry Fairfield Osborn. The typescript begins with page 63 and ends at page 261a. It contains multiple handwritten ink and pencil edits by Schwarz, and also cut and pasted typewritten insertions.
