The northern brook lamprey is part of a group of jawless fish with the scientific name “Ichthyomyzon” which comes from the Greek ichthys = "fish" + myzo = "to suckle"

This #StPatricksDay, #GreatLakes researchers search for their scientific pot o’ gold in the emerald green poo of #sealamprey! GLFC-funded researchers found DNA from the lampreys’ last fish meal in the festive feces, improving our knowledge of host fish for this #invasivespecies.
