- Description
- Online version of original print edition of the Special Publication of the J.L.B. Smith Institute of Ichthyology; No. 5, Two hauls made in late January, 1930 off southern Africa by the Danish Dana Expedition contained developing eggs and very young larvae of the congrid eel Gnathophis capensis (Kaup, 1856).
