Etymology: Myxine: Ancient Greek word for a slimy fish: myxa, slime; -inus, one who, referring to copious amounts of slime produced by M. glutinosa (See ETYFish); hubbsi: In honor of American ichthyologist Carl L. Hubbs (1894-1979), “primarily for his foresight in instigating the worldwide study on hagfishes” (See ETYFish).
Eponymy: Professor Carl Levitt (Leavitt) Hubbs (1894–1979) was a giant of American ichthyology. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Of 150 investigated specimens, 76% were females, 23% were hermaphrodites, and 6% were males (Ref 31276).
Life cycle and mating behavior
половая зрелость | размножение | нерест | икра | Fecundity | личинки
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 ).
