However, only 3 of the measured were inches or longer. The mean lenglli of sculpins from both areas and all depths was inches. The largest sculpin reported b}' Miller (1951) was inches tl. The mean length of sculpins sampled at depths of 200, 300, and 400 ft in Agate Bay was inches, compared with inches for the same depths at South Tahoe. This ditference. although small, was found to be highlv siiinificant when tested statistically by analysis of variance (F = **, = 1, 2817, = ). The size composition of sculpins sampled in the two areas was also quite dissimilar, suggesting that little, if any, intermingling occurs OCTOBER-DECEMBER _AGATE BAY_ (604 SCULPINS) SOUTH TAHOE ( 384 SCULPINS).. < I- O UJ < lU o tr LU a. 15 14 13 12 I I 10 9 I. 8 O JANUARY-MARCH AGATE BAY (1,138 SCULPINS) 12 3 4 TOTAL LENGTH IN INCHES.
