landing in New York City in July 1939. Archbold Biological Station With the outbreak of war in the Pacific, the series of expeditions to New Guinea came to a halt, and in 1941 Archbold established the Archbold Biological Station at Lake Placid, Florida, where he lived the rest of his life. The station was established on land donated by John A. Roebling II. There were four further Archbold-financed expeditions to New Guinea after the war, but Archbold did not personally participate in them. References Further reading Archbold, R.; & Rand, A.L. (1935).
