The consistency of the substrate is vitally important to the Southern brook lamprey because during the larval stage, the lamprey burrows into the substrate using its oral disk as an anchor.

The location of the State of Tennessee in the United States of America. Topographic map of Tennessee.

The eggs of the American brook lamprey (ABL) are white, sticky, and small, measuring about 1 mm (0.04 in). When they hatch, the embryos are small as well, measuring less than 5 mm (0.20 in); they are white and wormlike. Within a month they take on the larval appearance.
