Developmental condition of the small and staple whale food in summer. For vertical scale see legend to Fig. 107. fall mainly within a length range of 25-44 min., although exceptionally, as for instance at Station 1511, backward swarms may be encountered with a dominant length range of only 21-28 mm. In March the yearling swarms tend to fall mainly within a length range of 33-48 mm., although again exceptionally, as for instance at Station 658, surprisingly backward swarms may be encountered late in the month in which the females are still in stage i and the length range still dominantly 21-28 mm. as in February. (5) Throughout the season the adult swarms fall dominantly within a length range of 44-60 mm., the majority of them, however, in the 48-56 mm. range. (b) Southern zone (i) As in the northern zone the staple whale food is represented by a heterogeneous assemblage of yearling and adult swarms, the former, however, slowly outgrowing their early adolescent phase and in many instances persisting until well into March with the small whale food as an important or dominant component of the swarm length range.
