BULLETIN OF THE BUREAU OF FISHEKIES 



(1918, p. 65; 1922) offers the extraordinary rarity of the larvae, for example, of the 

 plaice (Hippoglossoides), witch (Glyptocephalus), cod, haddock, hake (Urophycis) , 

 or pollock (Pollachius virens), although the adults of all of these are plentiful there; 



Pig. 35. — Locality records for flounder (plcuronectid) and gadoid larvae (a dot for each record of each species) to illustrate 

 the probable drift of buoyant fish eggs and larval fishes 



all, in fact, spawn in the bay, for cod and plaice eggs have been recognized there 

 in the plankton (Huntsman, 1922), and floating fish eggs of some species were noted 

 by Doctor McMurrich as occurring occasionally during January, February, April, 

 and early May, and regularly thereafter until the end of August at St. Andrews.
