1815 Philos. Trans. (Royal Soc.) 105 260 Bloch has given a correct account of many parts of the myxine, illustrated by engravings.

1836 W. Yarrell Hist. Brit. Fishes II. 463 As a British fish, the Myxine occurs most frequently on the eastern coast.

1875 Amer. Naturalist 9 633 The Amphioxus is a low, embryonic vertebrate, which graduates into the fishes through the lamprey and myxine.

1907 Science 18 Oct. 492/1 The Pisces of Linné included only the genera left after the exclusion of those just named and also of Myxine which last was transferred to the class of Vermes.

1964 T. J. Parker & W. A. Haswell Text-bk. Zool. (ed. 7) II. 198 One medium-sized Myxine can gelatinise as much as 500 cc. of sea water in less than a minute.

2006 M. W. Hardisty Lampreys i. 22 Whereas, the eye of Myxine is hidden below its head muscles, its position in the species shown in Figure 1.10 can be identified on the surface by a patch of unpigmented skin.
