Etymology: Eptatretus: hepta (Gr.), seven; tretos (Gr.), perforated (i.e., with holes), referring to seven gill apertures on what would later be described as Homea banksii (=E. cirrhatus) [range within genus is 6-14 pairs of gill apertures]. (See ETYFish); cirrhatus: Latin for having tendrils, i.e., presumed to be a species of “lamprey” with barbels. (See ETYFish).
