Petromyzontidae are a family of lampreys native to the Northern Hemisphere, comprising the vast majority of living lampreys. Petromyzontids have the highest number of chromosomes (164–174) among vertebrates.
== Classification == Vladykov and Kott (1979) proposed classifying the Northern Hemisphere lamprays into three subfamilies: Petromyzontinae, Entospheninae and Lampetrinae. Also Carim et al. (2024) proposed a genus Occidentis for western North American ‘Lampetra’. Subfamily Petromyzontinae Ichthyomyzon Petromyzon — sea lamprey Caspiomyzon Subfamily Entospheninae Entosphenus Tetrapleurodon Subfamily Lampetrinae Eudontomyzon Lampetra Lethenteron Occidentis
