Comparison, in every ioc of longitude, between Humpbacks killed per day in 1936-8 and Humpbacks shot at per day during the ' William Scoresby's' whale-marking cruises in 1934-8. From Tables 11 and 12. combined. Since Humpbacks are caught in considerably smaller numbers than the other two, the vertical scale for this species is doubled so that its relative distribution can be more easily Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Institute of Oceanographic Sciences (Great Britain); National Institute of Oceanography of Great Britain; Great Britain.
