   note: the common or sea lamprey of america and europe
         petromyzon marinus, which in spring ascends rivers
         to spawn, is considered excellent food by many, and is
         sold as a market fish in some localities. the smaller
         river lampreys mostly belong to the genus
         ammocoeles, or lampetra, as ammocoeles
         fluviatilis, of europe, and ammocoeles
         aepypterus of america. all lampreys attach
         themselves to other fishes, as parasites, by means of
         the suckerlike mouth.
