From Table 15. large numbers between 20 and 400 E in area III, and again between 80 and ioo° E in area IV. This suggests a grouping very similar to that of Humpbacks. Fin whales dominate the catches in area II between 20 and 500 W; in area III there is a maximum in about the same position as the Blue whale maximum, but in area IV the maximum for Fin whales is some distance to the east of that for Blue whales.

The well-known scarcity of whales about 60 and 700 E is clearly seen. The graph of' whales per day' gives
