Appendix III of the Bern Convention (protected fauna). Protected by law in the Netherlands. Protected by law in France. Short description Dorsal spines (total): 0; Anal spines: 0; Anal soft rays: 0. Anguilliform body. Two continuous dorsal fins. Typical arrangement of sharp teeth in suctorial mouth. Brown colored dorsal side not marbled. Its sides are golden yellow and the ventral portion is white. Biology Amphihaline species. Adults live in the sea, but not as far from the coastline as Petromyzon marinus. In autumn, adults commonly undergo reproductive migration from the sea to the rivers. During reproductive migration and reproduction, adults do not feed but instead utilize their lipid reserves  and are known to undergo a considerable shortening of up to 27 per cent. Spawning takes place in pre-excavated pits in river beds, its depth between 50 cm and 1 m; after spawning the adults die. The blind ammocoetes larvae are filter feeders and live mostly buried in the river bed. Metamorphosis takes place at a length of about 13 cm and they migrate to the sea. Juveniles then live in the sea where they grow and fatten up for at least a year. Adults feed on fishes by sucking their blood and afterwards consuming the flesh. The mucus and serum are poisonous and the flesh must be thoroughly washed and all the blood removed before consumption (Ref. 5504). Utilized fresh and smoked; eaten fried.
