	Eel story
		Until 1893 a transparent, leaflike two-inch ocean creature was named as a separate species: Leptocephalus brevirostris (from the Greek leptocephalus meaning "thin- or flat-head").
		But then, in the Mediterranean Sea, the Italian zoologist Giovanni Batista Grassi observed the transformation of a "Leptocephalus" into a round glasseel, and in Roscoff the French zoologist Yves Delage proved in a laboratory that both are the same species.
		Nobody knows why, but beginning in the mid-1980s, the leptocephalus and glasseel arrival in the spring dropped drastically, in Germany to 10%, and in France to 14%, of their previous levels - as reported even by conservative opinions.

		Until 1893, larval eels — a transparent, leaflike two-inch (five cm) creature of the open ocean — was considered a separate species, Leptocephalus brevirostris (from the Greek leptocephalus meaning "thin- or flat-head").
		But Italian zoologist Giovanni Batista Grassi observed the transformation of a Leptocephalus into a round glasseel in the Mediterranean Sea, and French zoologist Yves Delage proved in a laboratory in Roscoff that both leptocephalus and eels were the same species.

	Eel leptocepahalus
		Your mystery fish is a larval eel, called a leptocephalus.
		Eel and eel-like fishes have very unusual life histories and their leptocephalus larvae differ greatly in form and body shape from adult eels.
		The word leptocephalus means slender-headed (lepto- = slender; cephalus = head) and indicates that the head is often very small in relation to the rest of the body.

		The readiest characters by which to distinguish the conger from other eels are noted in the key (p.
		It has long been known that the congers, like the common eels, pass through a peculiar ribbonlike larval stage (the so-called "leptocephalus") very broad and thin and perfectly transparent, with a very small head.
		In fact the first leptocephalus ever seen (about 1763) was the larval European conger.

	Green Moray - Gymnothorax prasinus
		The life cycle of all eels involves a larval phase during which time the developing eel is known as a leptocephalus.
		Unlike many (but not all) species of adult eels which are bottom living fishes, leptocephali are found in the plankton in open water.
		The leptocephali of the freshwater eels make incredible journeys of thousands of kilometres from the open ocean spawning grounds of the adults into freshwater streams.

		harbour, and the transformation of L. Morrisii into young conger, and of various other forms of Leptocephalus into other genera of Muraenidae, such as Muraena, Congromuraena and Ophichthys, was observed.
		In 1894 the same authors published the announcement that another species of Leptocephalus, namely, L. brevirostris, was the larva of the common eel.
		This larval form was captured in numbers with other Leptocephali in the strong currents of the Strait of Messina.

		Note: [1] Only clear character uniting this group is the bizarre larval form, the leptocephalus.
		During this time, leptocephalus grows but does not change much in structure - in matter of a few days, leptocephalus transforms into juvenile with habitat and adult way of life.
		However, some members of the Notacanthiformes (deep-sea benthic elopomorphs) do essentially all of their growing as leptocephalus larvae.

		Giant eels have been measured upwards to 12 ft. Many people believe that sea serpent sightings are the result of overgrown giant eels.
		To support this theory, we have the case of a 6 ft long leptocephalus, or eel larvae, collected by the research vessel Dana in 1930.
		A normal leptocephalus is only 3 inches long.

		MEANS OF MOVEMENT AND DISPERSAL: Longidorus leptocephalus is dispersed with infested soil and by poorly sanitized bare rooted plants or contaminated machinery.
		RATING: (VL) Taking into consideration the limited information on the economic damage that this nematode causes to agronomic crops, the risk posed by L. leptocephalus to the United States is rated very low.
