Sea Lamprey white paper (PDF 2.9MB)

This 25-page report by a respected Maine fisheries biologist, supported with funds from the Maine Atlantic Salmon Conservation Grant and reviewed and edited with technical support from our staff and other partners, collates natural history information on native sea lamprey in Maine. The report clearly documents the positive contributions of sea lamprey in Maine waters, distinguishing our native sea lamprey from introduced sea lamprey in the Great Lakes, thus dispelling unfounded myths about Maine’s sea lamprey.
