This survey was carried out between June-July 1989 in the English Channel and the Bay of Biscay in order to investigate the distribution and abundance of crab (*Cancer pagurus*) larvae. A fine mesh sampler was also used to determine the distribution of scallop (*Pecten maximus*) larvae and to take additional plankton samples in areas of highest abundance of larvae to estimate haul to haul spatial variability. 319 stations were sampled on the main survey grid. This data consists of the numbers of crab larvae, plus fish eggs from a selected few stations, along with associated positional data and volumes filtered.
