Extract

On the SOND Cruise of R.R.S. 'Discovery' in 1965 a day and a night series of horizontal hauls were made with a modified Indian Ocean Standard Net (N113 H) fitted with a catch dividing bucket (C.D.B.). The hauls were of 1 h duration, made at approximately 50 m depth intervals from 960 to 40 m, at a position off Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands. This paper is one of a series by various authors on the vertical distributions of the animal groups sampled (Angel, 1969; Clarke, 1969 a; Baker, 1970; Badcock, 1970; Foxton, 1970a, b). Details of the cruise and of the hydrology of the area are given by Currie, Boden & Kampa (1969), and Foxton (1969) gave details of the sampling methods.
