Abstract: Paper presents data on the zooplankton of Cork Harbour, taken from some fifty samples at 6 sampling stations. Surface hauls (using a townet) of 4 minutes duration were taken at a speed of 1 knot with a net of known mouth diameter and having 80 meshes per inch. Each entity encountered is dealt with systematically in the paper, with short notes on each one. Paper is concluded with a short discussion.
