Mugil cephalus Linnaeus (Mugilidae). Although this 

 species was collected in fall (1969), winter (1970 and 

 1971), spring (1971), and summer (1970), most specimens 

 were collected in winter (27%) and spring (64%). In 11 



collections (8 from the surf and 3 from the tidal pool), 

 73 specimens of 17 to 328 mm SL (26, 25-229 mm SL from 

 the surf and 47, 17-328 mm SL from the tidal pool) of 

 M. cephalus weighing 2,426 g (1,786 from the surf and 

 640 from the tidal pool) were obtained. Even though 

 Mugil cephalus outranks four of the seven most impor-
