摘要
A new species of the hagfish genus Eptatretus (Myxinidae) is described based on two specimens (407-433 mm total length) collected off the northern Bahamas, between depths of 910 and 1153 m. The new species is distinguished from its congeners by having seven pairs of gill apertures well-spaced and arranged in a near straight line, a 3/2 multicusp pattern of teeth, 10-11 anterior unicusps, 50-51 total cusps, 12-14 prebranchial pores, 48-52 trunk pores, 79-84 total pores, and no nasal-sinus papillae. An identification key for the species of Eptatretus from the western Atlantic Ocean is also provided.
