I believe the answer is:

eel

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">slithery swimmer</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for eel that I've seen before include "Long thin fish" , "Electric swimmer, perhaps?" , "Slippery figure" , "Snakelike fish" , "Slippery character" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, The Sunday Times, The New York Times and the USA Today.
