Presentation transcript:

American brook lamprey (Lampetra appendix) Timothy Stewart Identification: buccal disk; 7 gill apertures; no paired fins (to 26 cm) Distribution: northeast IA (e.g., Volga River); mid-central IA? Habitat: riffles/runs over gravel/sand in streams; ammocoetes burrow; adults cling to rocks Iowa DNR Minnesota DNR

American brook lamprey (Lampetra appendix) Diet: organic matter, microbes (ammocoetes); adults nonfeeding Reproduction: 1,000-5,000 eggs in sand depressions in spring; adults die after spawning Conservation status: IA status “threatened”; cool, clear water with gravel/sand critical?; abundance unknown Minnesota DNR

American brook lamprey (Lampetra appendix) Economic/recreational value: unimportant to anglers Ecological importance: probably unimportant in IA due to rarity; process organic matter; eaten by piscivores Other: short adult life (fall to spring – nonfunctional digestive system); 4-7 years as ammocoetes
