Abstract
The oil recovery from beach-spawning Newfoundland capelin has confirmed an earlier report that the fat content is of the order of 3–4%. The oils recovered from both sexes were examined, that from the female having a significantly higher iodine value. Owing to the sex ratio on the beach a commercial oil might be essentially that from the male capelin and is similar in properties and distribution of major fatty acid components to herring oil. The content of unsaponifiable matter was somewhat higher than in commercial herring oil.
