As they mature, the larval lampreys grow eyes and a sucker-like mouth. Do Native Pacific Lamprey and Invasive Sea Lamprey Share an Alarm Cue? Sea lampreys (Petromyzon marinus) are cyclostomes, the most basal extant group of vertebrates, and are thought to have existed largely unchanged for more than 500 million years. Those contending that it is not native believe that this species, unknown in Lake Ontario prior to the 1830s, had most likely entered the inland lake from Atlantic coastal drainages via the artificially created Erie Canal (e.g., Emery 1985). Crossman. Following the collapse of fish stocks in the mid 20th century, sea lamprey was reportedly the best-publicized cause of the problem (Francis et al.
