Abstract
Sea lampreys Petromyzon marinus were observed on 109 occasions on 47 individual minke whales Balaenoptera acutorostrata. Bloody lesions could be identified as previous attachment sites, indicating P. marinus feeding on B. acutorostrata blood.
摘要
在 47 头小须鲸 Balaenoptera acutorostrata 身上共观察到 109 次海七鳃鳗 Petromyzon marinus 的寄生现象。这些出血性病变可被认定为海七鳃鳗之前的附着部位，表明海七鳃鳗以小须鲸血液为食。
