 fry of plaice with shrimp-nets on the north-side of Sejrø off Kongshoj. The 

 Itreakers on the lowest sand-banks made wading impossible. We worked for 

 half an hour with the net from the jolly-boat and caught 5 plaice of the 

 0-group. 



Tuesday, August 26., 1902. 



The 0-group of the plaice is found on the sand-banks on Iow water >S'. nf 

 Lundeborg. 



A number of plaice, which must be supposed to be one year old, were 

 found off Lundeborg, most of them on deep water (9 fathoms), on the oozy 

 bottom, together with common dåbs; a few also on the sand-banks on Iow 

 water. Such plaice, then, seem here (and in Nyborg Fjord) to live under very 

 different conditions.

 of water: I. A number of plaice of the 0-group were taken on the sandy bot- 

 tom with shrimp-net. — II. With bait-seines we made some hauls towards 

 land. Of flat-fishes (plaice and flounders) we took altogether 8 score (2 score 

 in the haul).
