Abstract
The recovery off the coast of Maryland in December 1979 of a short-finned squid tagged at Twillingate, Newfoundland, in early September 1979 represents the greatest distance travelled and longest time of tag retention recorded for Illex illecebrosus. This migrant travelled at least 1,260 miles in 107 days. The significance of this tag recovery with respect to stock identity and offshore migration in autumn is noted.
