COSEWIC assessment and status report on the Vancouver Lamprey, Entosphenus macrostomus, in Canada .: CW69-14/562-2018E-PDF
"This endemic parasitic fish is known from only three connected lakes and the lower reaches of larger tributaries within a single watershed on Vancouver Island. The species’ spawning areas and juvenile rearing habitats have a restricted distribution in tributary deltas and lakeshore littoral habitat. Slow but ongoing declines in habitat quality and quantity due to threats from droughts and water management, sediment mobilized following upslope logging, and shoreline development threaten the species’ long-term persistence"--Assessment Summary – November 2017, p. iii.
