Lake lamprey are long and thin like
eels. They have a smooth skin with
no scales. The adult lake lamprey
has large eyes and it has a larger
mouth (circular sucking disk) than
other members of the family
Lampetra. It is dark, almost black in
colour. Scientists often use the
structure of the adult’s mouth and
teeth to separate one species from
another because lampreys have
few other features that can be
used for identification. Young
lampreys do not have eyes or
teeth.
