Abstract

The pteropods represented by Creseis
acicula, Diacria sp. and Cavolinia sp. occurred
occasionally in the zooplankton samples
collected from the fishing grounds of the
Karwar region. Generally the frequency
of occurrence of C. acicula was greater than
those of the others during the years 1980-
'82. The number of specimens of C. acicula
per sample used to be a few and never
exceeded 7,216 recorded on 10-4-1980 until
an unusually large number 140,636 was
observed in a surface haul of zooplankton
on 16-10-1982.
