The current topics in fish fatty acid (FA) research include qualitative comparisons, trophic transfer as nutritive sources of FA, evolutionary comparison of synthesis pathways, and potential application of most efficient fish desaturases and elongases. FA are scarcely investigated in Elopomorpha and Anguilliformes, except for common- and Japanese eels. In this study determines the differences in lipid composition of FA between species of the order Anguilliformes, representing three families, Mediterranean moray, Muraena helena Linnaeus, 1758 ; European conger, Conger conger (Linnaeus, 1758) ; and European eel Anguilla anguilla (Linnaeus, 1758) (thereafter moray, conger, and eel, respectively). These are the first results on FA for the moray.
