Myxinoids in Chile are represented by the subfamilies Eptatretinae and Myxininae, with a total of 14 species, the identification is complex due to the low level of morphological differentiation that characterizes this taxonomic group. Worldwide, hagfish are species of commercial value, and in Chile many attempts have been reported to initiate small-scale fisheries. The aim of the present study is describe the hagfish species caught in an incipient fishery of the Magellan Strait. Samples were collected in the Magellan Strait during eight fishing expeditions from June 2009 to October 2010 in Bahía Lomas (5348`S; 70°46'W) and Agua Fresca (5323`S; 70°45'W). The samples were taken at two depths, 0-70 meters and 71-140 meters. Taxonomic keys were used to... |
