Abstract: | A new species of hagfish (Myxinidae),Eptatretus eos, is described on the basis of one specimen from the Tasman Sea, west of New Zealand. This five-gilled, deep-sea species differs
from previously described hagfish in having the unpaired nostril prolonged into a tube-like snout and in being uniformly pink. |
