"The eggs of the cunner or chogset 

 (Ctenolabrus adspersus) are of the same 

 size and character as those of its near 

 relation, the tautog, and are deposited 

 during the same season. In water having a 

 mean temperature of 56° F. they have 

 been hatched in 5 days, in the tidal 

 cod-jar. On account of the small size, great 

 abundance, and comparatively little 

 commercial value, the propagation of the 

 cunner has not been regularly 

 undertaken." p. 223.
