Petersen of the Darling Marine Center in Maine, USA; Dr. Daniela Iraci Sareri, University of Catania, Italy; Dr. Daniel Martin, Director, Centre d'Estudis Avancats de Blanes (CSIC), Spain; Guillermo Ruiz Cancino, Mexico; Dr. Salma Shalla based in the Isle of Man, UK; and Joana Zanol based in Washington, D.C., USA.

sealord > This European lobster, Homarus gammarus, entered a Clive Brown lobster pot off the south coast of Guernsey on the 17 November 1998.  What makes this lobster so unusual is that it is a double-crusher clawed lobster.  Nearly all lobsters have one crusher claw and one pincer claw.  Double-crusher clawed lobsters are rarer than double-pincer clawed lobsters.
