The Tonga team was Edward W. Gifford and both from the University of California and the botanist was Arthur J. Eames from Harvard University. The Marquesas team was from Harvard and Ralph Linton from the University of Pennsylvania accompanied by the Yale botanist Forest B. H. Brown, and Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Handy as volunteer assistants.
