Given the lack of genetic information about Mediterranean sea lamprey, taking advantage of recent capture of two individuals in the western Adriatic Sea, molecular analysis of a partial sequence of the mitochondrial DNA control region has been performed on two Mediterranean specimens for the first time. A new haplotype is reported for this species. Furthermore, the finding of both juvenile and adult individuals suggests the presence of suitable rivers for reproduction in the Adriatic region.
