SUMMARY

SUMMARY

IDENTIFICATION

SCIENTIFIC NAME(s)

Homarus gammarus

SPECIES NAME(s)

European lobster

European Lobster populations between the Atlantic and Mediterranean do not show major genetic differentiation between them. However, molecular markers show evidence of four major distinct groups: northern Norway; Netherlands; remaining Atlantic area; and the Mediterranean (Triantafyllidis et al. 2005Jørstad et al. 2005).

Marine Scotland Science considers twelve assessment units, each of which assessed and managed separately (ICES, 2013; Barreto and Bailey, 2014).
