Remarks Gelatinous zooplankton (GZ) were obtained from planktonsamples collected using Bongo nets (mesh size 500 μm, mouth opening 0.3 m^2) towed at about 10 mdepth horizontally for 10 min, while the vessel speed was aimed at 3 knots. Sampling dates are estimated. The absence of Aglantha digitale was in April was likely because it was missed due to the shallow sampling design.
