The smallest sample examined was from the Firth of Forth, 

 16th March. It was composed of herrings with one and two 

 winter rings. The size will be seen in Table I. 



The opportunity is taken to correct here an error that occurred 

 in the printing of last year's report (Herring Investigations, 1918, 

 Table IV., page 15, sample 8). The range of size is given under 

 20 to 28 cm. This is 1 cm. too small, and should be from 21 to 

 29 cm.
