Everything about Leptocephalus totally explained

A leptocephalus (meaning "small head") is the flat and transparent larva of the eel and other members of the Superorder Elopomorpha, including the conger, tarpon, bonefish, and pelican eel. This transparency is due in part to its surprising lack of red blood cells.
   The leptocephalus of the common Japanese conger,, is called Noresore· in Kochi Prefecture, Japan, and often served live to the table, and eaten live after dipping in Tosazu mixed vinegar. It is a spring seasonal specialty.
   It is also the genus name of Leptocephalus, a congrid eel of the Red Sea and Indian Ocean.
