Gorgasia Japonica
''Gorgasia'' is one of the two genera that belong to the subfamily ''Heterocongrinae'' (common name: garden eels). This genus is classified by the behavioral pattern of burrowing 75% of their bodies in the sandy substrate they live in and protruding their upper body into the water current above, giving the appearance that they are planted into the ground (origin of common name). This protruding behavior serves a multipurpose functionality to their survival. The first function serves as a method of collection of their prey. Most members of this genus prey on zooplankton floating in the passing current, while some species (i.e. '' G. hawaiiensis'') will prey on small fish eggs. The second function of the burrowing behavior allows for avoidance of predation. Whenever in the presence of a predator, most commonly the Pacific Snake Eel '' Ophicthus triserialis'', garden eels will retreat back into their burrows and hide. Similarly, during the night hours (non-light hours) when zooplankt ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

It occurs in sandy areas exposed to currents at depths between 18 and 75 m, but is usually observed at an average depth of 30 m. Biology The splendid garden eel lives in a buried tube in the sand either alone or in groups ranging anywhere from three to over a thousand eels. Typically, only its head and uppermost body protrudes from the sand, and it will retreat entirely if approached ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
