During the whole of our Atlantic cruise we constantly captured young fish, in fact many thousands in all. According to their vertical distribution these young fish may be divided into two groups. Fig. 533 shows that the majority of the 3604 young fishes examined were taken in the uppermost 150 metres of the sea. Most of the young fishes taken in appliances used in deeper water have, in all probability, been taken while hauling in the gear, and nearly all the peculiar large leptocephali have also been taken in the upper layer. But there is a certain group of young fishes which show a maximum frequency about Vertical dis- tribution of young Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Murray, John, Sir, 1841-1914; Hjort, Johan, 1869-.
