Abstract

In western Norway the slime-eel or hagfish, Myxine glutinosa L., is extremely common in many places on certain types of bottom. Nansen (1988) says about M. glutinosa: “In the localities where they occur, here — in the neighbourhood of Bergen — I think they are more common than any other fish; in a single night we may, in one, or a few, eel-pots baited with a little, quite fresh, haddock or cod, capture such multitudes of them, that it would indeed be a profitable business if the captured fish could be used for domestic consumption.”
