Abstract

Ichthyoplankton, collected in the Gulf Stream frontal zone off Nova Scotia in late autumn 1974, was represented by 22 families. The larvae of some species of these families have not been previously found in the area. Myctophid larvae were the most abundant and were represented in many samples. Zoogeographical structure of the ichthyoplankton community and the larval distribution of some groups are briefly discussed.
