Notes
Title from caption.
"May 12, 1969."
"Jacks (Caranx hippos), 5 to 6 inches long, were taken ... from the waters around the Bermuda Biological Station, St. George's West, Bermuda"--P. 2.
"Experiments were carried out to determine whether or not the duration of schooling was equivalent among fish separated by barriers and those not separated by barriers. The barriers were either transparent or they partly occluded vision. The results showed that the time pairs of fish spent oriented parallel to one another when separated by barriers was significantly less than the time other pairs of fish spent oriented parallel when they were not separated by barriers"--P. 11-12.
