They are fished by a directed fishery and as a by catch in the lobster fishery. To protect their reproductive capacity rock crab are sustainably managed by the DFO Canada. Rock crabs have a broad, oval carapace with nine shallow smooth edge teeth along the front of their carapace. Rock crabs have five pairs of legs, but the first pair is a set of pincers that are used for feeding and defense. They are yellow-brownish in color and can grow to a maximum carapace width of 5.5 inches. HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS Shelf Life Ingredients: 24 months after freezing date. Rock Crab Meat, Salt Storing Keep frozen. Product must be maintained below - 18°C (0°F) during storage and shipment.

Pots are made in forms of cages or baskets in different sizes made from various materials such as wood, wicker, metal rods, wire netting and plastic. Pots usually contain one or more entrances. The pots are set on the bottom of the ocean, some baited with pieces of fish. The crabs will then enter the pots for the bait or use them for shelter.

Walburg Fishery Research Biologist Beaufort , North Carolina Four species of crabs possessing the qualifications of an important food resource - abundance, wholesomeness, good flavor, and a ready market are found in the marine waters of the United States and Alaska. These are the blue crab of the Atlantic coast and Gulf of Mexico, the rock crab of New England, the Dungeness crab of the Pacific coast, and the king crab of Alaska. A few other species of good quality and of sufficient abundance also support small fisheries. Among these are the Jonah crab of New England and the stone crab of the south Atlantic and Gulf coasts. Atlantic and Gulf Coasts THE BLUE CRAB, Ca11inectes sapidus, next to the shrimp and lobster, is the most valuable crustacean of our waters. Its range is from Cape Cod to Mexico. It is found in greatest abundance from Delaware Bay to Texas, and the region of Chesapeake Bay is especially famous for its great numbers of blue crabs. The favorite habitat of the blue crab includes estuarine waters such as bays, sounds , and channels at t he mouths of coastal rivers.

Zawia DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2018 ABSTRACT Jonah crab (Cancer borealis) is a demersal crustacean distributed throughout continental shelf waters from Newfoundland to Florida. The species supports a rapidly growing commercial fishery in southern New England, where landings of Jonah crab have increased more than six-fold since the early 1990s. However, management of the fishery has lagged its expansion; the first Fishery Management Plan for the species was published in 2015 and a stock assessment has not yet been created due to a lack of available data concerning the species’ life history and fishery.

Boudreau*, Boris Worm Biology Department, Dalhousie University, 1355 Oxford Street, PO Box 15000, Halifax, Nova Scotia B3H 4R2, Canada ABSTRACT: Large benthic decapods play an increasingly important role in commercial fisheries worldwide, yet their roles in the marine ecosystem are less well understood. A synthesis of exist- ing evidence for 4 infraorders of large benthic marine decapods, Brachyura (true crabs), Anomura (king crabs), Astacidea (clawed lobsters) and Achelata (clawless lobsters), is presented here to gain insight into their ecological roles and possible ecosystem effects of decapod fisheries. The reviewed species are prey items for a wide range of invertebrates and vertebrates. They are omnivorous but prefer molluscs and crustaceans as prey. Experimental studies have shown that decapods influence the structuring of benthic habitat, occasionally playing a keystone role by sup- pressing herbivores or space competitors. Indirectly, via trophic cascades, they can contribute to the maintenance of kelp forest, marsh grass, and algal turf habitats. Changes in the abundance of their predators can strongly affect decapod population trends. Commonly documented non- consumptive interactions include interference-competition for food or shelter, as well as habitat provision for other invertebrates. Anthropogenic factors such as exploitation, the creation of pro- tected areas, and species introductions influence these ecosystem roles by decreasing or increas- ing decapod densities, often with measurable effects on prey communities.
