Etymology: Lycenchelys: Greek, lykos = wolf + Greek, enchelys, -yos = eel (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Georg Ossian Sars (1837–1927) was a Norwegian biologist. He was commissioned by the Norwegian government (1864) to investigate fisheries around the country’s coast. His main specialism was in crustaceans, of which he named many new species. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 2.6 - 10.1, mean 6.4 °C (based on 234 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00132 (0.00073 - 0.00238), b=3.05 (2.88 - 3.22), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.2   ±0.36 se; based on food items.
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Medio, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 1.4 - 4.4 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
