NORTH SEA INVESTIGATIONS. 107 



The sizes and conditions of the turbot and brill which I examined 

 in May and June last year, are shown in the two tables here given. 

 Most of them were examined on board the two trawlers on which 

 I made the two voyages described in the previous number of the 

 Journal ; but in addition are included 20 brill from the same grounds, 

 which I examined on shore. Some smaller specimens, which were 

 only 8 and 9 in. long, were measured, but their sex not ascertained.
