Identification of Ruffe larvae () in the St. Louis River, Lake Superior: Clarification and guidance regarding morphological descriptions.

Non-native ruffe (; family Percidae) were first detected in the Laurentian Great Lakes in 1986, and are not included in regional larval fish keys which were published several years prior to their discovery. In addition, subsequent scientific literature has inconsistently described ruffe larvae. As a result, identification of larval ruffe remains challenging.

Can a rapid underwater video approach enhance the benthic assessment capability of the national coastal condition assessment in the great lakes?

Over 400 sites were sampled in the nearshore of the U.S. Great Lakes during the U.
