Etymology: Eudontomyzon: eu-, a Greek intensive (good, well or very); odontos (Gr.) tooth, referring to numerous radially arranged teeth of E. danfordi; myzon (Gr.), to suck (borrowed from Petromyzon), referring to their suctorial behavior. (See ETYFish);  mariae: In honor of Berg’s second wife Maria (née Ivanova), “who examined many thousands of river lampreys from the mouth of the Neva and other streams, falling into the Finnish Gulf”. (See ETYFish).

Velar tentacles, 7-12, with tubercles. No dark blotch near the apex of the second dorsal fin. Lateral line neuromasts unpigmented or darkly pigmented, at least on the ventral aspect. Extent of caudal fin pigmentation (- = absence to trace; + = 1% to under 25%; ++ = 25% to under 75%; +++ = 75% or more): - (7%), + (3%), ++ (13%), +++ (77%). Caudal fin shape, spade-like (97% of individuals), rarely rounded. Oral fimbriae, 88-98 (Ref. 89241). With 62-73 trunk myomeres. The caudal fin is dark grey to black (Ref. 59043).

Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Adults are found in freshwater; in brooks, rivers, and lakes (Ref. 89241). They inhabit the mountain and foothill zones of watercourses containing clear water with a strong current and gravel-sand substrate. The ammocoetes larvae live in detritus-rich sand-mud substrates in areas of weak current, frequently beneath overhanging banks. Ammocoetes feed on diatoms and detritus; adults don't feed. Metamorphosis occurs in September in Poland and Slovakia and in July in the Ukraine. Ammocoetes used as live bait (Ref. 12283). Adults are preyed upon by Esox lucius (Ref. 89241), the chub (Leuciscus cephalus) and other predators in the period of their spawning (beginning of May to beginning of June). Mature individuals form spawning aggregations (Ref. 59043). Spawning occurs on gravel and sand substrates, also possibly over hard white clay (Ref. 58030), in late April - early May in the Ukraine. Fecundity, 1,950-7,106 eggs/female (Ref. 89241). Adults are nonparasitic. However, rare cases of ectoparasitism have been reported in Jelesná Brook, Slovakia and the Prut River, Ukraine (Ref. 89241).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Reproduktion | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larver

Spawning individuals come out in open day light. Males dig a shallow nest in areas with moderate current. Spawners form aggregations. Spawners die afterwards. Ammocoetes last 3.5 to 4.5 years. They metamorphose in September - December (Ref. 59043).
