Excerpt from Progress in 1967-68 at the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries Biological Laboratory, Honolulu The Hawaii Area of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries covers a wide reach of the tropical and subtropical Pacific Ocean (fig. Between Palau in the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, where the Hawaii Area maintains a field station, and the Laboratory in Honolulu lie more than miles of ocean, a distance about as great as that between New York and Rome, Italy. The second field sta tion, at Pago Pago, American Samoa, south of the Equator, is 5 hours and 10 minutes by jet flight from Hawaii. From Honolulu northwest to Weather Station Victor, 1 of 10 Pacific locations from which the Laboratory maintains continuing data collections, is more than nautical miles.

The cephalopods found in neritic waters of the northeastern United States include myopsid and oegopsid squids, sepiolid squids, and octopods. A key with diagnostic illustrations is provided to aid in identification of the eleven species common in the neritic waters between Cape Hatteras and Nova Scotia; included also is information on two oceanic species that occur over the continental shelf in this area and that can be confused with similar-looking neritic species. Other sections comprise a glossary of taxonomic characters used for identification of these species, an annotated systematic checklist, and checklists of the 89 other oceanic species and 18 Carolinian and subtropical neritic species that might occur occasionally off the northeastern United States.
