A Multispecies Aggregation of Cirrate Octopods Trawled from North of the Bahamas

Two cruises in the western North Atlantic collected 38 trawl samples between the Bahamas and New England. Ofthe 22 cirrate octopods taken in these samples, 17 came from the area north of the Bahamas. Pooled catch rate (specimens per hour of bottom trawling time) was significantly higher north of the...
