  • The eye of a juvenile Pacific Lamprey (Lampetra tridentata). These fish have an ancient lineage, appearing in the fossil record nearly 450 million years ago – well before the age of the dinosaurs. Pacific lamprey are an important ceremonial food for Native American tribes in the Columbia River basin. Little is known about the life history or habits of this fish except that their numbers in the Columbia River have greatly declined over several decades. Photographed at the USGS Columbia River Research Lab in Willard, Washington.

  • A single Pacific Lamprey (Lampetra tridentata) is mixed in with white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus) and steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) as they are washed down a fish ladder while it is drained. They will be placed back in into the river by Army Corp Of Engineers staff. John Day Dam on the Columbia River.

  • Umatilla tribe member and fisheries biologist Aaron Jackson holds a pacific lamprey (Lampetra tridentata) collected from Willamette Falls. Water flowing over Willamette Falls (background) was restricted so tribe memebers from the Columbia River Basin could exercise their treaty rights to fish for lamprey.

  • The late Elmer Crow Jr., a Nez Perce Elder and technical supervisor for the Nez Perce Department Of Fisheries Resources Management, holds an adult Pacific Lamprey (Lampetra tridentata) before placing it in a holding tank. The Columbia River and the John Day Dam are in the background. Pacific Lamprey, often described as a trash fish, are in significant decline and are important to the tribes of the Columbia River Basin icnluding the Nez Perce. They are also important to the ecology of the river and tributary ecosystem.

  • Umatilla tribe member Kanim Moses allows a Pacific Lamprey (Lampetra tridentata) to attach to his arm with it's sucker mouth at Willamette Falls, in the Willamette River near Oregon City. Tribes of the Columbia River Basin have treaty rights to harvest at the falls, and other places in the Northwest.
