Ichthyoplankton sampling. During this cruise yielded 163 samples (97 Bongo and 66 Neuston) from 101 stations, and a total of 26,777 larvae were collected. Bongo nets were towed for 10 minutes just below the sea surface at the stations identified in the attached excel spreadsheet. Bongo samples were collected from these tows. Neuston tows were conducted for either 5 or 10 minutes at the identified stations, however this net was towed half in and half out of the water, to capture the sea surface. Neuston samples were collected from these tows. Due to a cessation in funding, the samples collected have not yet gone through taxonomic identification. If funding is restored, all samples collected will be identified using taxonomic keys and a subsample will be identified using genetic techniques.
