Extract

While examining collections of young fish taken with a 2 m stramin net on the west coast of Scotland in 1975 for the unstaffnage Marine Research Laboratory of the Scottish Marine Biological Association I found two postlarvae unlike any I have seen before.

These two specimens, both about 6.2 mm long, were taken on 31 July 1975 from the Tiree Passage between the Islands of Mull and Tiree, and from Bloody Bay on the south-west coast of Mull.
