Abstract
All hemoglobin sequences of Osteichthyes determined so far have been limited to the division Euteleostei, while the European eel, Anguilla anguilla (L.), belongs to the division Taeniopaedia; its sequences are thus phylogenetically important. As a preliminary to sequence determination, the amino acid composition of the two hemoglobin components of A. anguilla was determined. As expected, the data were similar to those of the American eel, while more differences were found with respect to the Japanese species.
