Resumen:
In the present paper the efficiency of two plankton nets with similar characteristics to those used by Fenaux et al. (1979) is comparatively analyzed for the quantitative estimationof four species of the genus Oikopleura. We test the hypothesis that immature animals are captured in a greater proportion by the 53 ym mesh net. In addition, their abundance
at a coastal station located in the northeast of Brazil is discussed.
