| Abstract: | During the research program on the biology and migration ofAnguilla spp. carried out with F.R.V.  Anton Dohrn in 1979, approximately 1300 adolescent and adult anguilliform individuals were caught covering 8 families, 10 genera and 12 species. Observations on each of these species, including horizontal and vertical distributional patterns, are dealt with herein. The appearance of various species in hauls and the absence of adultAnguilla spp. in the catches obtained are discussed. |
