In addition to the information from new research, each chapter contains information on individual commercial genera. This information includes species and distribution, predators and diseases, ecology and behaviour, aquaculture and enhancement, harvesting of wild populations and their regulations, management and conservation.
The section on slipper lobsters has also been expanded to cover species of the genera Thenus and Ibacus, both of which are now the targets of commercial fishing operations. The shifts that have taken place in certain lobster fisheries, the new management systems that have been put into place, the present status of stocks, and the economic and social position of each fishery, have all been addressed and explored in great length.
Lobsters, Second Edition is an essential source of reference for fisheries scientists, fisheries managers, aquaculture personnel, aquatic and invertebrate biologists, physiologists, ecologists, marine biologists, and environmental biologists, to name just a few of the types of specialists who will find it useful. It will be a very beneficial addition to the shelves of libraries in all educational and research institutions that study and teach subjects related to biological and life sciences, fisheries, and aquaculture.
