Spatial ecology and habitat partitioning of two sympatric ophichthid eel species in the Gulf of Mexico
by Steven A Murawski, Adolfo Gracia

Despite being commonly caught as directed/bycatch species in commercial/recreational fisheries, the ecology of king snake and palespotted eels is little known. Murawski and Gracia used data on demersal longline fisheries in the Gulf of Mexico to help us understand their spatial ecology and habitat preferences and how these species might respond to future warming scenarions in their habitat.
