RED SALMON 
ROUTES TRAVELED 
In order to simplify the interpretation of the data given in Tables 2 to 29, 
•other tables have been prepared combining the data obtained from the various 
experiments begun in each main locality. Thus, the results obtained from each 
experiment begun in the Kelly Rock and Big Valley traps on Unga Island are 
presented in Table 30 (p. 30). This table gives the percentage recaptured in each 
locality from which recaptures were reported, the time, in days, between tagging 
and recapture, and in the last two columns the total number of recaptures reported 
from each locality and the percentage of the total number tagged taken in each 
locality. The same has been done for the experiments begun in the Coal Harbor 
trap on Unga Island (Table 31, p. 52), Ikatan Bay (Table 32, p. 53), 3 traps (Pacific 
American Fisheries traps Nos. 8, 3 and 2) on the western and northern shores of 
Morzhovoi Bay (Table 34, p. 56), and from one trap (Pacific American Fisheries 
trap No. 5) located on the eastern shore of Morzhovoi Bay (Tanle 35, p. 57.) This 
particular grouping of experiments was made as a result of a careful inspection of 
the data, which showed that the results from these various localities were distinct 
enough to justify their separation, and that the results from the experiments that 
have been thrown together were similar enough to justify such treatment. 
The localities from which recaptures were reported have been arranged in each 
of these tables as nearly as possible in the order of their proximity to the point
