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); laurahubbsae: In honor of Laura Clark Hubbs (1893-1988), friend and co-worker, who contributed to the life and works of her husband, ichthyologist Carl L. Hubbs (1894-1979) (See ETYFish).
Eponymy: Laura Cornelia Hubbs née Clark (1893–1988) was the wife of Carl Levitt Hubbs (q. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Copulatory organ absent. The gonads of hagfishes are situated in the peritoneal cavity. The ovary is found in the anterior portion of the gonad, and the testis is found in the posterior part. The animal becomes female if the cranial part of the gonad develops or male if the caudal part undergoes differentiation. If none develops, then the animal becomes sterile. If both anterior and posterior parts develop, then the animal becomes a functional hermaphrodite. However, hermaphroditism being characterised as functional needs to be validated by more reproduction studies (Ref. 51361 ).
