The smalleye spaghetti-eel[1] (Neoconger vermiformis) is an eel in the family Moringuidae (spaghetti/worm eels).[2] It was described by Charles Henry Gilbert in 1890.[3] It is a tropical, marine eel known from the eastern central and southeastern Pacific Ocean, including Mexico, Colombia, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama.[2][1] It is known to dwell at an approximate depth of 55 m, and inhabits substrates, burrowing into mud and sand.[2] Its diet consists primarily of shrimp, crabs, benthic gastropods, bivalves, and worms.[1]

Due to its widespread distribution, lack of known threats, and lack of observed population declines, the IUCN redlist currently lists the smalleye spaghetti-eel as Least Concern.[1]
