Cruise 6 of the R/V ANTON BRUUN, originating from Bombay on May 15
and terminating at Durban, South Africa on July 16, 1964, was the second
of two cruises on which a special effort was made to sample the meso- and
bathypelagic fauna of the western Indian Ocean. Collections were made
with a 10-ft Isaacs-Kidd midwater trawl at 61 stations from about 18° N
latitude to 41° S latitude, along the 65° E meridian. In addition to
the midwater trawl collections, the basic program of hydrography,
biological oceanography, and primary production was continued.
Presented in this report are the reduced oceanographic, chemical,
and biological data, station lists of plankton, midwater trawl, and
miscellaneous biological collections, and bathythermograph positions for
Cruise 6. A narrative report of Cruise 6 was issued as News Bulletin
No.8 of the U. S. Program in Biology, IIOE, dated December, 1964.
