Coloconger cadenati is an eel in the family Colocongridae (worm eels/short-tail eels).[1] It was described by Robert H. Kanazawa in 1961.[2] It is a marine , deep-water dwelling eel which is known from Senegal to the Gulf of Guinea in the eastern Atlantic Ocean . It is known from a depth range of 270–600 m. Males can reach a maximum total length of 90 cm.[1] The diet of C. cadenati consists primarily of benthic crustaceans .[3]
Etymology [ edit ]
The eel is named in honor of ichthyologist Jean Cadenat (1908-1992), who was the Director of the Marine Biological Section of the Institut Français d’Afrique Noire in Gorée, Senegal , who supplied the type specimen.[4]
