In the above list I have endeavoured to give a fairly complete represeu- 

 tation of the piaces in Denmark where eel-traps*) are set for the purpose of 

 catching migratory eels (silver eels) iu the autumn, as also of the number of 

 traps at the various piaces. 



The traps, as it is well known, are set either singly or iu rows out from 

 laud or the ueighbourhood of laud (see Drechsel: Vore Saltvaudsfiskerier, PI. 

 XIII.), but iu other respects the way in which they are set varies very much. 

 They may thus be placed by 



1) "killoclis" (a sort of woodeu anchors) or stones ouly, without stakes ("Øre- 



sundsruser", "Klodsruser''). 



*) Perhaps eelsets or eel stake-nets would be a better translation of the Danish word 

 "Aaleruser".
