80-100 (ca. 90 ) oysters gave small mug of meats and juice. Cup= 
6 high and cm. framxtsipxsdgKxafxK wide over all, juice drained off left 
meats 2i> cm. from top edge of cup. Meats small and very salty to taste. 
Oysters hard to open, very irregular. 
In about 90 oysters found 4 prs. and 3 or ^ others of which one or two 
were in shucked oyster and there is one with the amphipods. 12 crabs in 
about 90 oysters. Ruined my hands getting them opened. 
The interesting thing is that always found male with each ovigerous 
female; no exceptions! Among shucked oysters found a male. 
Hind pair of legs, in females at least, carried up over back like 
dromids. Are very helpless outside of oyster, do not seem to be able to 
balance, and are always seeking to hang on to something with hindmost legs.
