The Caribbean hagfish, (Myxine mcmillanae), is a species of hagfish. It is a scaleless, eel-like fish found in Caribbean waters that feeds off material from the surface that drifts down. It is rarely seen as it lives in very deep water from 2,300-4,950 feet (700-1,500 meters) and likes to burrow into the mud. Their body is grey with a contrasting white head. They have 7 internal gills connected to a single opening on each side of the body.
