He was also the author of Mammals of Utah / taxonomy and distribution , published in 1952. The first half of this collection consists of professional correspondence; the second half includes files on graduate students, field trips and National Science Foundation activities. English

This collection is made up of a miscellany from Dr. Stephen David Durrant's files. The first section, correspondence spanning the years from 1931 to 1975, is divided into letters received and letters sent. Following this general professional correspondence is Durrant's life-long correspondence with Professor E. Raymond Hall of the Department of Zoology at the University of Kansas. The rest of the collection is arranged alphabetically by subject. Included here are the files Durrant kept on his graduate students, material dealing with the participants in the National Science Foundation's annual Honoraria from 1957 to 1975, various National Science Foundation documents, proposals, and reports, and some material covering Durrant's many University field trips.

This collection is arranged alphabetically.
