In that year the catches off the coast of Maine (Stations 1024$, 10250, 10251), on the southeastern part of Georges Bank (Station 10223), and locally off Xova Scotia, contained the two in roughly equal numbers. Sagitta serratodentata was much the more numerous of the two in the deep hauls in the eastern and southeastern parts of.
