Push and pull of downstream moving juvenile sea lamprey () exposed to chemosensory and light cues.

Visual and olfactory stimuli induce behavioural responses in fishes when applied independently, but little is known about how simultaneous exposure influences behaviour, especially in downstream migrating fishes. Here, downstream moving juvenile sea lamprey () were exposed to light and a conspecific chemosensory alarm cue in a flume and movement were monitored with overhead cameras and nets. When exposed to light, sea lamprey were more likely to be captured in a net closest to the light array.
