Conspecific cueing in the sea lamprey: do reproductive migrations consistently follow the most intense larval odour? (2009, background): “This movement is guided by a pheromone that is released by larvae that are resident to spawning streams (Teeter 1980; Vrieze & Sorensen 2001; Sorensen et al. 2005).”
Effects of Body Size and River Environment on the Upstream Migration of Adult Pacific Lampreys (2009, background): “First, if both large and small lampreys attempt to reach upriver sites (ie, they are homing to natal areas or respond similarly to cues from upstream larval or conspecific pheromones [ Vrieze and Sorenson 2001 ]), then smaller fish with lower energetic reserves would probably have greater mortality.”
