Target species | Pacific lamprey (Lampetra tridentata); river lamprey (L. ayresi); western brook lamprey (L. richardsoni) |
Project ID | Title | Description |
200201600 |
Determine lamprey species composition, larval distribution and adult abundance in the Deschutes Subbasin. |
Proposed work is critical to Project 200201600 by providing tools to identify larval lampreys and information to guide the design of lamprey distribution surveys. |
200001400 |
Evaluate habitat use and population dynamics of lampreys in Cedar Creek. |
Proposed work will complement Project 200001400 by providing tools to identify larval lampreys and information to guide the design of lamprey distribution surveys. |
200002800 |
Evaluate Status of Pacific Lamprey in the Clearwater River Drainage, Idaho. |
Proposed work will complement Project 200002800 by providing tools to identify larval lampreys and information to guide the design of lamprey distribution surveys. |
9402600 |
Pacific Lamprey Research and Restoration. |
Proposed work will complement Project 9402600 by providing tools to identify larval lampreys and information to guide the design of lamprey distribution surveys. |
Objective | Task | Duration in FYs | Estimated 2004 cost | Subcontractor |
1. Determine diagnostic characteristics of egg and larval stages of lampreys. |
Spawn adult Pacific, river, and western brook lampreys in the laboratory, collect a time series of resulting progeny, and conduct morphometric analyses to determine diagnostic characteristics that differentiate these species. |
