Nemamyxine elongata, the bootlace hagfish, is a species of hagfish in the genus Nemamyxine . [2] [1] Distribution, abundance, and natural history are not known. Only two specimens have been collected. One was found dead in a net in the Kaituna River (Bay of Plenty), and thought to have been a fishery discard. The other was collected alive during a trawl at 132-140m in the Canterbury Bight (East coast of South Island). The larger specimen was 867 mm TL but maximum size is unknown. One specimen was a female with small eggs similar to those of other hagfish species.. [3]

It is known only from high altitude forest and grassland habitats in the Cordillera Oriental of Ecuador. Seven other species of Thomasomys live in the same areas. First collected in 1903, T. ucucha was formally described as a new species in 2003 and most closely resembles T. hylophilus, which occurs further to the north. The species is listed as "vulnerable" in the IUCN Red List as a result of habitat destruction.
