Yilan, Taiwan is the first place in East Asia where freshwater glass eels, the juvenile stage of species, arrive by ocean currents. We collected glass eels by fyke net in Lanyang River estuary twice a month from July 2010 to November 2023. By morphological examination and sequencing of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene, we identified seven species of . Most of the glass eels captured in Yilan belonged to the species , , and . Only a few were , and two were recorded. In addition, two species were recorded for the time time from Taiwan; and were confirmed by cytochrome b sequencing. Thus, we increase the number of species in Taiwan from five to seven.
台湾宜兰是东亚地区第一个淡水鳗鲡苗（该物种的幼体阶段）随洋流抵达的地方。2010年7月至2023年11月，我们每月两次在兰阳河口用陷网采集鳗鲡苗。通过形态学检查和线粒体细胞色素b基因测序，我们鉴定出了七种鳗鲡。在宜兰捕获的鳗鲡苗大多属于 、 和 物种。只有少数是 ，并记录到两种 。此外，首次从台湾记录到两个物种；通过细胞色素b测序确认了 和 。因此，我们将台湾鳗鲡物种的数量从五种增加到七种。
