Comments |
The specimen caught in the vicinity of the Verde Island Passage and the Calavite Passage (between Luzon and Mindoro islands). has been tentatively identified as Myxine formosana. Despite differences in color pattern, all measurements and counts of caught specimen are similar to those described of M. formosana and thus, additional specimens collected around the Philippines would be helpful to confirm the identity of this species (Ref. 95645). |
