The size frequency distribution for Cyanea medusae col- lected in 1982. The frequency of individuals in each size class from samples in each half of a month are combined. The state of maturity, reproduction (females with blastulae), and condition are indicated. The temperature shown is the average for the half-month periods, and N is sample 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 Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
