Etymology: Myxine: Ancient Greek word for a slimy fish: myxa, slime; -inus, one who, referring to copious amounts of slime produced by M. glutinosa (See ETYFish); garmani: In honor of American ichthyologist-herpetologist Samuel Garman (1843-1927), Harvard University, for his “excellent work” on Myxine (See ETYFish).
Eponymy: Dr Samuel Trevor Walton Garman (1843–1927) was an American naturalist, most noted as an ichthyologist and herpetologist. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Life cycle and mating behavior
النضج | التكاثر | وضع البيض | بيض | الخصوبة | Larvae
Copulatory organ absent. The gonads of hagfishes are situated in the peritoneal cavity. The ovary is found in the anterior portion of the gonad, and the testis is found in the posterior part. The animal becomes female if the cranial part of the gonad develops or male if the caudal part undergoes differentiation. If none develops, then the animal becomes sterile. If both anterior and posterior parts develop, then the animal becomes a functional hermaphrodite. However, hermaphroditism being characterised as functional needs to be validated by more reproduction studies (Ref. 51361 ).
