Etymology: Eptatretus: hepta (Gr.), seven; tretos (Gr.), perforated (i.e., with holes), referring to seven gill apertures on what would later be described as Homea banksii (=E. cirrhatus) [range within genus is 6-14 pairs of gill apertures] (See ETYFish); multidens: multus (L.), many; dens (L.), tooth, referring to high tooth count (three fused teeth in each row) (See ETYFish).

Diagnosis: Gill pouches 6 pairs. Fused cusps 3 in both anterior and posterior rows of teeth; total cusps 50-58. No middorsal light stripe (Ref. 52140). Slime pores: prebranchial 14-16; branchial 5-7; trunk 52-55; tail 15; total 87-93 (Ref. 41105).
Body shape (shape guide): eel-like.
Minimum depth given from Ref. 52140.
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 ).
