The pale green eel (Heteroconger digueti), also known as the pale garden eel or the Cortez garden eel,[3] is an eel in the family Congridae (conger/garden eels).[4] It was described by Jacques Pellegrin in 1923, originally under the genus Taenioconger.[5] It is a nonmigratory marine, deepwater-dwelling eel which is known from the eastern central Pacific Ocean, including the Gulf of California and Mexico. It dwells at a depth of 230 to 275 m (755 to 902 ft) and inhabits sandy sediments near reefs in large colonies. Males can reach a maximum total length of 63 cm (25 in; 2.07 ft).[4]
The pale green eel's diet consists of zooplankton.[6] Despite its restricted range, the IUCN redlist currently lists the species as Least Concern due to its common local occurrence, and the lack of known major threats.[7]
