McCosker.[4] It is a marine, subtropical eel which is known from a single specimen collected from a sandbank in the Gulf of California, in the eastern central Pacific Ocean, during low tide. From the holotype, it is known to reach a total length of {{convert|51|cm|in}}.[3] The IUCN redlist currently lists the Ordinary eel as Data Deficient due to the extremely limited number of described specimens, but notes that its habitat falls into a region of threat from coastal development.[2] References1. ^Common names of Ethadophis byrnei at www.fishbase.org. {{Taxonbar|from=Q1948665}}{{Ophichthidae-stub}}2. ^1 Ethadophis byrnei at the IUCN redlist. 3. ^1 Ethadophis byrnei at www.fishbase.org. 4. ^Rosenblatt, R.
