The Antarctic toothfish and the Patagonian toothfish are similar. They are in the same genus (Dissostichus), but different species. The Patagonian toothfish is Dissostichus eleginoides and the Antarctic toothfish is Dissotichus mawsoni. They are both known on the market as Chilean Sea Bass, so I suspect they taste the same! -Cassandra Hi Howard,

I have a question on the Toothfish. Is this a similar specie to the Patagonian?Is the flavor profile similar also? Cassandra,

Maybe some time in the future though! Best, Cassandra Dear Joey,

I have so many stories I could tell about my adventures down south. What would you like to know about specifically? Good luck on being a vet! You will be doing very great work in the world! The animals will surely appreciate you. Best wishes, Cassandra Dear Chasity,
