REMINGTON KELLOGG
October 5, 1892-May 8, 1969
BY FRANK C. WHITMORE, JR.
WITH BIBLIOGRAPHY COMPILED BY JANE KNAPP
REMINGTON KELLOGG, retired assistant secretary of the Smith-
sonian Institution and director of the United States Na-
tional Museum, died of a heart attack on May 8, 1969, in his
seventy-seventh year, at his home in Washington, D.C. He had
been recuperating from a broken pelvis suffered in a fall on
the ice the previous January, but, except for this period, he
had been constantly and productively engaged in research at
the national museum for more than forty-nine years. Retire-
ment, which came in 1962, brought him welcome relief from
administrative duties and an opportunity to intensify his study
of fossil marine mammals. The years 1962 to 1969 were among
his most productive.
Arthur Remington Kellogg, as he was christened (he early
dropped "Arthur" from his name), was born in Davenport,
Iowa, on October 5, 1892, the son of Clara Louise (Martin)
and Rolla Remington Kellogg. He was descended from colonial
stock on both sides of the family. One ancestor, Sergeant
Joseph Kellogg, came from England in 1651, settling first in
Farmington, Connecticut, and finally at Hadley, Massachusetts,
in 1661. Sergeant Kellogg helped to defeat the Connecticut
Indian tribes at Turner's Falls, Massachusetts, in 1676.
Kellogg's paternal grandfather taught Latin and Greek in
high school in Davenport, Iowa. His father was a printer who

BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS
at one time or another was owner of several printing shops.
Remington's mother was a school teacher before her marriage.
The Kelloggs moved to Kansas City, Missouri, when Remington
was six years old.
Of his early years Dr. Kellogg said, "I do not recall that I
disliked any particular study. Westport High School in Kansas
City was considered at the time to be an academic rather than
a manual training high school. The courses given were in
accordance with a regular schedule of four years of English,
history, mathematics, science, and Latin....
"From the fourth grade onward while attending public
grade and high schools most of my spare time outside of school
hours was devoted to studying wild life
and by the time I graduated from grade school I had prepared
a small collection of mounted birds and mammals."
Before completing his high school studies, Kellogg had
decided to attend a university where there were natural history
collections. This interest led him to the University of Kansas,
the training ground for many famous naturalists. In order to
. ~ .. .

save enough money for college, Remington found it necessary
to find employment as a salesman in a dry-goods store, as a
worker in the smokehouse of a packing plant, and as a cement
worker on a construction crew. In his first years at the uni-
versity he cooked his own meals and delivered papers. He sold
trunks as a traveling salesman during the summer after fresh-
man year. At the university he concentrated first in entomology;
later he changed his field to mammals. From 1913 to 1916 he
was a taxonomic assistant for mammals under Charles D.
Bunker, curator of birds and mammals in the Museum of Natu-
ral History at the university. His first paper, published in 1914.
resulted from this museum work. Bunker took Kellogg to his
cabin, where he instructed him in skinning and preserving
vertebrate specimens. In Kellogg's senior year, when an instruc-

tor died, he helped give a class in ornithology. He received his
A.B. in January 1915 and his M.A. in 1916.
In Kellogg's freshman year there began a lifelong friendship
with Alexander Wetmore. In 1911, Wetmore joined the Bureau
of Biological Survey, U.S. Department of Agriculture, and
helped Kellogg in getting summer jobs with the survey, con-
ducting field surveys of plant and animal life in the West. The
two men worked closely together for many years in the Smith-
sonian Institution, first as curators and later in administrative
positions, when Wetmore was secretary of the Smithsonian and
Kellogg was director of the United States National Museum.
Another admired friend of undergraduate days was Edward A.
Preble of the Biological Survey. Preble was an editor and fre-
quent contributor to the magazine Nature (not to be confused
with the British journal), then published in Washington, D.C.
Among many wildlife monographs he published a study of the
fur seals of the Pribilof Islands.
Immediately after graduation, in the winter of 1915-1916,
Kellogg worked for the Biological Survey in southeastern
Kansas and, in the following summer, in North Dakota. Of
this assignment he said, "I remember the first year I went out
to Wahpeton, North Dakota, the first day the chief of the survey
took me out and we walked all over the area. Then he said,
'Well, I'm leaving. You know all about it.' From then on I
was alone. I had to cover everything—plants and animals—and
write a report. It didn't faze me a bit—I guess I didn't know
any better."
While at the University of Kansas, Kellogg made his first
acquaintance with marine mammals, in the form of skeletons
of white whale, porpoise, walrus, and seal. In the fall of 1915,
at the end of his summer's fieldwork, the Biological Survey paid
his way to Washington, D. C. He made a tour of museums in
the eastern United States, which undoubtedly gave him further

opportunity to examine whales, pinnipeds, and sirenians. At
about this time he made His decision to study the evolution of
marine mammals, and in the fall of 1916 he entered the Uni-
versity of California at Berkeley to concentrate in zoology. At
Berkeley, Kellogg met several men who became lifelong friends
and in various ways influenced his professional growth. Perhaps
the most revered of these was David Starr Jordan, ichthyologist
and president of Stanford. Joseph Grinnell, director of the
Museum of Vertebrate Zoology at the University of California,
stimulated Kellogg's interest in ornithology. Chester Stock, a
fellow graduate student and later professor of vertebrate paleon-
tolog~r at California Institute of Technology, shared many hours
of discussion of evolution.

was gnat or Jonn a;. Merriam. Kellogg was given a teaching
fellowship and was invited by Merriam to study the fossil record
of the seals, sea lions, and walruses whose remains had been
found in Pacific Coast TertiarY formations. This orolect re-

(1921 and 1922), both dealing with fossil pinnipeds. With the
thoroughness, coupled with deceptively modest titles, that was
to characterize his published work throughout his career, the
second of these, entitled "Pinnipeds from Miocene and Pleisto-
cene Deposits of California," incorporated a critical review of
the literature of fossil pinnipeds of the world. This work re-
mains today the base upon which modern research on fossil
pinnipeds begins.
In the summer of 1917, Kellogg again did fieldwork for the
Biological Survey. He went to Montana and then to California,
where he studied the Microtus californicus group of meadow
mice. A monograph resulting from this work was published
in 1918.
Graduate work was interrupted by service in World War I.

On December 11, 1917, Kellogg enlisted in the 20th Engineer
Battalion at San Francisco, and on February 19, 1918, he sailed
from Hoboken for France. By a stroke of luck for a naturalist,
Kellogg was transferred in May 1918 to the Central Medical
Department Laboratory at Dijon, where he was promoted to
sergeant and found himself under the command of Major E. A.
Goldman, one of the last of the general field naturalists. One
of their major assignments was rat control in the trenches and
at the base ports. During his service in France, Kellogg ob-
served and collected birds and small mammals and sent collec-
tions to Joseph Grinnell at Berkeley and Charles D. Bunker
at the University of Kansas. His notebook contains almost daily
observations from November 17, 1918, to February 23, 1919.
The climax of this period was a motor trip that he took between
January 29 and February 23 with Major Goldman and Lt. A. C.
Chandler from Dijon to Toul and "such other places in depts.
of Meurthe-et-Moselle, Meuse, and Ardennes as is necessary to
carry out instructions of Chief Surgeon, in connection with
preparation of medical history of war." During the period of
this reconnaissance, his notebook lists thirty species of birds and
five of small mammals.
Upon his return to Berkeley, Kellogg gave a talk to the
Northern Division of the Cooper Ornithological Club entitled
"Experiences with Birds of France," and in 1919 he published,
with Francis Harper, who had also been in the Army in France,
a Christmas day bird census made at Is-sur-Tille in the Depart-
ment of Cote d' Or, where the Army Medical Laboratory was
situated.
In June 1919 Kellogg returned to the United States. He was
discharged from the Army at Newport News, Virginia, on July
2 and returned immediately to Berkeley to complete the resi-
dence requirements for the Ph.D. He transferred from zoology
to vertebrate paleontology under Merriam, resumed his teach-

BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS
ing fellowship for a semester, and then, on January 1, 1920,
was appointed assistant biologist in the Biological Survey, with
headquarters in Washington, D. C.
While at Berkeley, Kellogg had met a fellow student, Mar-
':,uerite E. Henrich, a native Californian. They were married
in Berkeley on December 21, 1920, and set up their home in
Washington, where, with many interludes of travel, they were
to spend their entire married life.
For the next eight years Kellogg performed varied assign-
ments, in field and laboratory, for the Biological Survey. He
was well suited to such work by inclination and training and
by a tremendously retentive memory and systematic use of the
literature. All his life he was an inveterate reader and maker
of reference cards, with annotations, filed taxonomically, by
subject, and by author.
Much of Kellogg's work with the Biological Survey had to
do with the feeding habits of hawks and owls, which entailed
both field observation and the examination of hundreds of
pellets. Observations were also made of the feeding habits of
diving ducks, which were suspected of depleting trout popula-
tions. In a travel authorization issued in 1920, Kellogg is
referred to as assistant in economic ornithology.
Between 1920 and 1927, a great deal of time was devoted to
the drudgery of examining pellets and stomach contents from
owls and hawks. These data were published (1926) in H. L.
Stoddard's Report on Cooperative Quail Investigation and in
his book, The Bobwhite Quail; also in Alfred O. Gross (1928),
Progress Report of the New England RufJed Grouse Investiga-
tions Committee.
Concurrently with his ornithological work, Kellogg spent
much time studying toads, mainly museum specimens, includ-
ing examination of stomach contents. In 1922 he published a
Biological Survey circular, one of a number that he wrote, on
the toad, and during that year he planned to revise the taxon-

only of the toads of North and Middle America. The entire
project was not completed, but it did result in an important
monograph, Mexican tailless amphibians in the United States
National Museum (1932~.
Another dietary study was made of alligators. In the 1920s,
there was a controversy over whether alligators should be pro-
tected from indiscriminate hunting, and Kellogg was given the
task of finding out how predatory they actually were. He pub-
lished a technical bulletin of the U.S. Department of Agricul-
ture, The Habits and Economic Importance of Alligators, in
1929.
At about the time Kellogg joined the Biological Survey, his
professor, John C. Merriam, was appointed president of the
Carnegie Institution of Washington. Merriam arranged an
appointment for Kellogg as a research associate of the Carnegie
Institution, a position he held from 1921 to 1943. Annual re-
search grants from the institution helped Kellogg to carry on
research on marine mammals concurrently with his extensive
projects for the Biological Survey. It was decided that an inves-
tigation of the earliest known predecessors of the typical ceta-
ceans, the Archaeoceti, found in older Tertiary rocks, would be
supported by a grant. In October 1929, Kellogg went to Choc-
taw and Washington Counties, Alabama, to collect zeuglodont
material to supplement the archaeocete collections in the Na-
tional Museum. The monograph resulting from this study, A
Review of the Archaeoceti, published in 1936, is a landmark
in cetology.
Merriam's increased administrative duties left him little
time for paleontology, and he encouraged Kellogg to begin a
project that Merriam had long had in mind: the study of the
marine mammals of the Calvert Cliffs in Maryland. Beginning
in the early 1920's, Kellogg devoted many weekends to collect-
ing, adding significantly to the collections of his predecessors,
William Palmer and Frederick W. True. By the time of Kel-

BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS
logy's death, the collection of fossil marine mammals in the
National Museum was probably the best in the world.
The most fascinating aspect of marine mammals is the way
in which existing mammalian organs have been modified for
life in the sea. Kellogg decided to make this theme the basis
for his doctoral thesis, which, because of the war and other
matters, had yet to be written. Using the literature, but also
drawing heavily on his own original studies, he wrote "The
History of Whales—Their Adaptation to Life in the Water"
(1928), for which he was awarded the Ph.D. by the University
of California. This paper is still the best summary of the subject.
In 1928, Kellogg transferred to the U.S. National Museum
as assistant curator of mammals under Gerritt S. Miller, Jr. He
became curator in 1941. With his transfer to the Smithsonian,
he was able to devote more time to study of marine mammals.
He has described the course of his research as follows:
"In the earlier stages the marine mammal studies were
largely descriptive, but as they progressed the importance of
fossil cetaceans for geological correlation became apparent. As
a collateral investigation, the recorded occurrences of migrating
whales in the several oceans were collated. These observations
confirmed the belief, more recently supported by whale mark-
ing, that the Recent whalebone whales make seasonal migra-
tions from tropical calving grounds to the food banks located on
or near the colder waters of the Arctic and Antarctic regions.
The location of fossil remains tends to confirm the conclusion
that the precursors of present day whalebone whales followed
similar migration routes, and that similar types of fossilized
skeletal remains occur in geological formations of correspond-
ing age on the old shores that bordered these oceans.
"Examination of fossilized cetacean skeletons excavated in
sedimentary strata deposited on ancient beaches, estuaries and
river deltas revealed that although these air breathing mammals
had been adapted for habitual aquatic existence, no funda-

mentally new structures had been added in the course of geo-
logic time, and that the functioning of the entire body is
conditioned by adjustments of old organs to an exclusive life
in the water" (McGraw-Hill, Modern Men of Science, 1968,
pp. 283-84~.
The Archaeoceti—the most primitive of the three suborders
of whales, dating from Eocene and early Oligocene time—are
well represented in fossil collections. So also are whales from
the Miocene Epoch, a period of tremendous evolutionary radia-
tion of Cetacea. Much less well known are the Oligocene ances-
tors of modern whale types.
While he was treating the Archaeoceti systematically, Kel-
logg simultaneously worked on the description of Miocene
Cetacea from both coasts of North America. This study was
of major concern to him from the time of his description of
the humpback whale Megaptera miocaena, in 1922, to his last
paper, "Cetothere Skeletons from the Miocene Choptank For-
mation of Maryland and Virginia," published the week after
his death.
The difference in Kellogg's approach to the Archaeoceti and
the Miocene Cetacea is significant and proper. The Archaeo-
ceti are unified by primitive characteristics that permit standard
taxonomic treatment, whereas the variation among the Miocene
forms is such that Kellogg, rightly, usually refused to assign
genera to families or to express opinions as to their relationships
to modern forms. At the same time his meticulous treatment of
both specimens and literature clarified many a taxonomic prob-
lem, even though it was as yet insoluble because of paucity of
data. An example is his treatment of the Squalodontidae
(1923), published under the title "Description of Two Squalo-
donts Recently Discovered in the Calvert Cliffs, Maryland,
and Notes on the Shark-Toothed Cetaceans." All genera as-
signed to the family are recorded and are either accepted,
reassigned, or placed in limbo as insufficiently known. This last
