. The Canadian field-naturalist. February, 1926] The Canadian Field-Naturalist 35. Fig. 6—Cod (left), Haddock and small Herring (right) caught in St. George Bay, Nfld. (Abraham's Cove) F. Johansen photo Bay. Typical for the Zostera-covered bottom further out was the Grubby (Myoxocephalus aeneus), of which I secured eight specimens 8-17 cm. long. When approached, it took refuge under the FwcMS-covered boulders. At 8 P.M. the tide was rising rapidly; so I walked along the beach to the very bottom of "Piccadilly", and succeeded in getting across the mouth of the big creek here just in time. Inside the creek-mouth I noticed both sticklebacks and Fundulus in the water, but was not able to secure any of them. I then continued on along the road through the woods to Abraham's Cove, at Bay St. George, where I got a room for the night. Next morning I went down to the beach, which here is composed of gravel, and more accessible owing to a creek outlet, while otherwise the coast on both sides consists of high limestone cliffs. The fishermen were just coming in with their motor boats from the bay, having secured a number of Cods (Gadus callarias, one very large) and some haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) (see fig. 6). I also got from them a Rough Dab (Drepanopsetta platessoides) about two feet long. The fishes had been caught by squid-bait, and had in their stom- achs crabs (Hyas, Chionoecetes) and large black Mussels (the black bank clam ?). Schools of smaller herring (Clupea harengus) were at present frequenting the shore-water and I kept five of them (15-17 cm. long) caught by the fishermen. Upon the beach were washed up large Aslerias rubens and Strongylocen- trotus droebachiensis (samples kept); and from some boys I got three Buccinum caught on cod- lines, and a stone with snail-eggs, Bryozoa, etc., on, secured here in about five fathoms of water some time ago. Later in the day I drove in a rig along the Bay St. George to Aquatuna Quarry; walked out to Middle P
