(Vancouver Public Aquarium) also provided Canadian larval 

 material. Data on distribution and abundance of larvae and 

 juveniles have been provided by H. G. Moser (SWFSC), W. 

 Shaw ( DFO, PBS ), B. L. Norcross, A. A. Abookire, and B. Hol- 

 laday (UA, Fairbanks), and D. Penttila (WDF). Several sci- 

 entists at AFSC assisted throughout this study: D. M. Blood 

 and M. S. Busby (collections at sea and technical assistance), 

 L. Ciannelli (measurements), K. Mier (statistical analyses), 

 S. Picquelle (mapping software and CPUE calculations), R. 



C. Harrison (translations), and W. Rugen (database support).

 phylogeny, we thank J. A. Cooper and P. Berendzen. The 

 following curators and collection managers generously pro- 

 vided loans and information on specimens under their care:
