Seafood Watch Seafood Report: Crabs Blue Crab
Seafood Watch Seafood Report: Crabs Volume I Blue Crab Callinectes sapidus Writer/Editor:AliceCascorbi Fisheries Research Analyst Monterey Bay Aquarium Additional Research: Heather Blough Audubon Living Oceans Program Final 14 February 2004 Seafood Watch® Blue Crab Report February 14, 2004 About Seafood Watch® and the Seafood Reports Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch® program evaluates the ecological sustainability of wild-caught and farmed seafood commonly found in the United States marketplace. Seafood Watch® defines sustainable seafood as originating from sources, whether wild-caught or farmed, which can maintain or increase production in the long- term without jeopardizing the structure or function of affected ecosystems. Seafood Watch® makes its science-based recommendations available to the public in the form of regional pocket guides that can be downloaded from the Internet (seafoodwatch.org) or obtained from the Seafood Watch® program by emailing [email protected]. The program’s goals are to raise awareness of important ocean conservation issues and empower seafood consumers and businesses to make choices for healthy oceans. Each sustainability recommendation on the regional pocket guides is supported by a Seafood Report. Each report synthesizes and analyzes the most current ecological, fisheries and ecosystem science on a species, then evaluates this information against the program’s conservation ethic to arrive at a recommendation of “Best Choices”, “Good Alternatives” or “Avoid.” The detailed evaluation methodology is available upon request. In producing the Seafood Reports, Seafood Watch® seeks out research published in academic, peer-reviewed journals whenever possible. Other sources of information include government technical publications, fishery management plans and supporting documents, and other scientific reviews of ecological sustainability. -

Pribilof Islands Red King Crab
2011 Stock Assessment and Fishery Evaluation Report for the Pribilof Islands Blue King Crab Fisheries of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Regions R.J. Foy Alaska Fisheries Science Center National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA Executive Summary *highlighted text will be filled in with new survey and catch data prior to the September 2011 meeting. 1. Stock: Pribilof Islands blue king crab, Paralithodes platypus 2. Catches: Retained catches have not occurred since 1998/1999. Bycatch and discards have been steady or decreased in recent years to current levels near 0.5 t (0.001 million lbs). 3. Stock biomass: Stock biomass in recent years was decreasing between the 1995 and 2008 survey, and after a slight increase in 2009, there was a decrease in most size classes in 2010. 4. Recruitment: Recruitment indices are not well understood for Pribilof blue king crab. Pre-recruit have remained relatively consistent in the past 10 years although may not be well assessed with the survey. 5. Management performance: MSST Biomass Retained Total Year TAC OFL ABC (MMBmating) Catch Catch 2,105 113A 0 0 0.5 1.81 2008/09 (4.64) (0.25) (0.001) (0.004) 2,105 513B 0 0 0.5 1.81 2009/10 (4.64) (1.13) (0.001) (0.004) 286 C 1.81 2010/11 (0.63) (0.004) 2011/12 xD All units are tons (million pounds) of crabs and the OFL is a total catch OFL for each year. The stock was below MSST in 2009/10 and is hence overfished. Overfishing did not occur during the 2009/10 fishing year. -

Several hundred adult specimens of crabs and lobster from two tunicate- infested estuaries and Northumberland Strait were examined for epibionts. Small patches of Botrylloides violaceus were found on rock crabs examined from Savage Harbour and a small colony of Botryllus schlosseri was found on one lobster from St. Peters Bay. Lobster and lady crab collected in Northumberland Strait had no attached colonial tunicates but small sea grapes (Molgula sp.) were found attached on the underside of 5.5% of the rock crab and on 2.5% of lobster collected in Northumberland Strait in August 2006. -

Reed, Donna L. Wolcott and Thomas G. Wolcott ABSTRACT Reproductive success of female blue crabs may be limited by the amount of sperm received during the female's single, lifetime mating. Sperm must be stored in seminal receptacles until eggs are produced and fertilized months to years after mating. Further, intense ®shing pressure impacts male abundance, male size and population sex ratio, which affect ejaculate quantity. We measured temporal variation in seminal receptacle contents in relation to brood production for two stocks differing in both ®shing pressure on males and latitudinal effects on repro- ductive season: Chesapeake Bay, Maryland and Virginia, experienced intensive ®shing and relatively short reproductive season; and the Indian River Lagoon, Florida, experienced lower exploitation and longer reproductive season. -
Challenging the Cold: Crabs Reconquer the Antarctic

Recent records of lithodid crabs in deeper waters off the Antarctic continental slope raised the question of the return of crabs to Antarctic waters, following their extinction in the lower Miocene ;15 million years ago. Antarctic cooling may be responsible for the impoverishment of the marine high Antarctic decapod fauna, presently comprising only ®ve benthic shrimp species. Effects of polar conditions on marine life, including lowered metabolic rates and short seasonal food availability, are discussed as main evolutionary driving forces shaping Antarctic diversity. In particular, planktotrophic larval stages should be vulnerable to the mismatch of prolonged development and short periods of food avail- ability, selecting against complex life cycles. We hypothesize that larval lecithotrophy and cold tolerance, as recently observed in Subantarctic lithodids, represent, together with other adaptations in the adults, key features among the life-history adaptations of lithodids, potentially enabling them to conquer polar ecosystems. The return of benthic top predators to high Antarctic waters under conditions of climate change would considerably alter the benthic communities. -
Introduction Porcupine Crab (Neolithodes Grimaldii)
Introduction as the king crab family of which 79 species have been identified throughout the oceans of the world. Male Porcupine Crab (Neolithodes grimaldii) specimens have been measured with a carapace length inhabits the sea bed off the Coast of Newfoundland (CL) of 180 mm and weighing 2.28 kg. Females of the and Labrador in depths beyond 500 fathoms (fm). species do not grow quite as large but carapace lengths This large crab is often caught as a by-catch in the up to 160 mm have been recorded. turbot gillnet fishery. Preliminary experiments with processing limited amounts have shown that marketable crab meat products can be produced from porcupine crab. Attempts have been made to increase the volume of raw material for processing by utilizing the by-catch, either by sectioning the crab onboard the vessel or landing whole crab, iced in boxes. This approach has not proven effective mainly because the crab has to be removed from gillnets which is extremely time consuming, especially when large quantities are involved. Also, fishermen try to avoid porcupine crab as turbot is their main species. It is generally accepted that if the fishery is to develop a method of potting the crab has to be devised. To date this has not been accomplished in spite of two The crab has three pairs of walking legs and separate projects in which various pot designs and bait one pair of claws. The right claw is larger than the left types were set in locations where porcupine crab had and is probably used for crushing while the smaller left been caught in turbot nets. -

From McDowell Group, Inc.: Jim Calvin (project oversight and editor), Dan Lesh (lead author/ analyst), Garrett Evridge (author/analyst) , Joe Jacobson (author/analyst), Paul Strickler (author/analyst). From Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission: Bob Ryznar (project oversight and sub-contractor management), Jean Lee (data compilation and analysis) This report was produced and funded by the NOAA-NMFS’ Alaska Fisheries Science Center. Funding was awarded through a competitive contract to the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission and McDowell Group, Inc. The analysis was conducted during the winter of 2018 and spring of 2019, based primarily on 2017 harvest and market data. A final review by staff from NOAA-NMFS’ Alaska Fisheries Science Center was completed in June 2019 and the document was finalized in March 2016. Data throughout the report was compiled in November 2018. Revisions to source data after this time may not be reflect in this report. Typically, revisions to economic fisheries data are not substantial and data presented here accurately reflects the trends in the analyzed markets.
