Lois E. Hunter identified larvae from 9 cruises, about 84% 

 of all samples collected in 1959; E. H. Ahlstrom and David Kramer 

 identified the remaining samples. Ronald Whyte and Douglas 

 Hammond coded each larval fish taxon or type and entered them 

 into the computer. Debby Snow efficiently assisted in all 

 aspects of data editing and retrieval. Cindy Meyer, Larry Zins, 

 and James Ryan provided programming assistance. Dorothy Roll 

 designed the CalCOFI data acquisition system and provided data 

 processing support. Ken Raymond, Roy Allen, and Henry Orr helped 

 with graphics and production of the report. Lorraine Prescott 

 and Diane Forsythe prepared the manuscript for printing. Paul 

 Smith determined statistical outliers, provided assistance during 

 geographical outlier checks and offered helpful suggestions 

 throughout the project. Izadore Barrett, Director of the 

 Southwest Fisheries Center and Reuben Lasker, Chief, Coastal 

 Fisheries Resources Division, SWFC, provided the support critical 

 to the completion of the project. James Thrailkill planned 

 CalCOFI surveys and supervised cruises, data handling, and 

 plankton sorting from 1949 to 1986 and is largely responsible for 

 the high quality of these operations. Without the vision and 

 direction of Elbert Ahlstrom and Elton Sette and the dedicated 

 efforts of the many people who collected, processed, and analyzed 

 the samples, this data base would not exist.
