Reproductive ecology of lampreys
Lampreys typically spawn in riffle habitats during the spring. Spawning activity and diel (ie,
during daylight and at night) behavioral patterns are initiated when spring water …

Variability in sea lamprey fatty acid profiles indicates a range of host species utilization in Lake Michigan
A Happel, J Rinchard, S Czesny - Journal of Great Lakes Research, 2017 - Elsevier
Despite being a “top predator”/parasite in the Great Lakes, knowledge of sea lamprey
feeding ecology remains hindered by methodological constraints. Particularly, our …

Female sea lamprey use seminal pheromones to discriminate among potential mates
Females' ability to select mates that can fertilize eggs directly impacts their fitness, but the
secondary sexual traits that often guide mate choice may not be directly correlated with male …
