We see from Fig, 474, p. 621, that even the small stages of Cyclothone are found at 300 and 500 metres. It is interesting to note that the young stages of pelagic fishes are sub- ject to the same laws regarding the development of colouring and light- organs as the adults. In the upper- most 150 metres the young are quite transparent, and many of them pos- sess light-organs in very early stages. Early stages of Argyropelecus (see Fig. 534) develop the silvery.
