Iu the tables given by Mr. Fawcus, it will be noticed that in 
certain cases — for complete months — the “total number” is that 
of the males and females, in other cases the “total number” is 
made up of the “number of hard” and the “ number of berried 
hens.” This means that in the former case, the whole of the crabs 
or lobsters caught were included under “ number of males ” and 
“number of females” before the soft crabs were separated, and 
in the latter, the “ total number ” refers to the number of hard 
alone. For April and May, 1899, the “ berried hens ” were not 
added in making up the totals.
