The metabolic responses of Antarctic and temperate eelpout species during exercise and subsequent recovery at 0 °C [18] is a point of emphasis when understanding this species. Contrary to the hypothesis of reduced glycolytic capacity in Antarctic fish as an adaptation to low temperatures, findings revealed similar increases in white muscle ...
The burbot (Lota lota), also known as bubbot, [2] mariah, [3] loche, cusk, [4] freshwater cod, [5] freshwater ling, freshwater cusk, the lawyer, coney-fish, lingcod, [6] or eelpout, is a species of coldwater ray-finned fish native to the subarctic regions of the Northern hemisphere.

The bearded eelpout has 9 or 10 suborbital bones and a cephalic sensory canal with 9 pores. There are 2 parallel lines of cirri on the lower jaw and. in adults, these often extend back as far as the branchiostegal region. They have 2 fin rays in the pelvic fin. The body is covered in small scales, there are two small pyloric caecae and a ...
The viviparous eelpout feeds on bottom-dwelling invertebrates, such as crustaceans, and fish eggs and fry. [6] Adults mate during the months of August and September using internal fertilisation. The fish are notably viviparous, giving birth to 30–400 live developed young. Unusually, it does so during winter when water temperatures are ...
An early fishery researcher is vindicated. Between 2006 and 2021, USGS collected 602 adult fish, from which they could extract genetic material, from around Lake Superior.
The snubnose eelpout has a moderately elongated body which has a depth at the origin of the anal fin equivalent to between 5.7% and 12.7% of its standard length. The mouth is terminal and there are no pelvic fins but the pectoral fins are long, wide and rounded and have between 16 and 19 fin rays. The body before the anus is around two fifths ...
