A cunner was observed to be in the 

 stomach of a "Peaked-nosed Skate" 

 caught in Vineyard Sound (p. 521). This 

 occurrence was also recorded in Baird 

 (1886).

 pertinent to other characteristics of 

 cunner eggs and larvae (size, number

 with explanations accounting for the 

 decrease in cunner egg diameter observed 

 through the spawning season.
