Abstract
The Ichthyoplankton Recorder is a high-speed underwater video system i ntegrated into a modified unencased Gulf III sampler and designed for recording small-scale distribution of fish larvae and their prey organ isms. The instrument is described and test results from a cruise to th e English Channel in January 1994 are reported including a comparison with two other sampling gear, a ''Nackthai'' and a ''Messhai'', employ ed for fish larvae surveys.
