Habitat loss caused by human activities in rivers have reduced lamprey populations and collapsed most commercial fisheries worldwide. Overfishing is a concern because traditional fishing gears (e.g., pots, fyke nets) target lampreys during their upstream migration, Keywords: usually in physical bottlenecks, which can result in exceedingly high fishing mortality. The reduction in Lamprey harvest Historical records catches has inflated lamprey prices and encouraged illegal fishing in certain countries (e.g., Portugal, Fishing gears Russia). The success of management actions for lamprey fisheries could be at risk due to knowledge gaps Overfishing that still exist regarding stock structure, estimates of stage-specific mortality, distribution at sea, pre- Management actions ferred hosts, and climate change impacts to the distribution and availability of adequate hosts. There is an urgent need for good-quality data from reported commercial landings and also from monitoring studies regarding the efficacy of mitigation and restoration efforts (e.g., habitat restoration, fishing reg- ulations, artificial rearing and stocking). Involving the general public and stakeholders in the manage- ment and conservation of lampreys through outreach actions is crucial to promote the protection of the ecological and cultural values of lampreys and the understanding of their vulnerability.

Lampreys have been harvested by humans for cen- centuries and the importance of lamprey fisheries in this region turies, with the main species exploited being the parasitic, migra- is well documented, including disputes between fishermen and tory species which attain larger body sizes (Renaud, 2011).
