 of fishes were performed. A thermometer 

 inserted in the stomach of cunner read 1.2° 

 F above ambient water temperature.

Cunner eggs were obtained from plankton 

 tows in June 1966. Cunner and tautog 

 eggs comprised the bulk of eggs identified 

 from plankton net hauls. Nearly all (98%) 

 of the cunner eggs obtained were from the 

 lower portion (high salinity) of the 

 Weweantic Estuary.
