W. Porter provided suggestions concerning the design of the research, and W. D. 

 Liddell, V. Tunnicliffe, and B. Westrum provided invaluable diving assistance. 

 This research was supported through funds provided by the International Women's 

 Fishing Association, the Society of Sigma Xi , the Organization of American 

 States, and the Women's Seamen's Friend Society of Connecticut.
