There
are two commercially important families of edible lobsters.
the Nephropidae, which include the American lobster Homarus
americanus, have one pair of large claws and are found in
the northern Atlantic Ocean. The Palinuridae, or spiny
lobsters (also called rock lobsters), lack the large claws
and have spines all over their bodies. They live in
subtropical and tropical oceans.
Lobsters
have compound eyes that are carried on movable eye stalks.
Each eye is made up of approximately 14,000 individual units.
Lobsters can detect movement, and they may be able to perceive
images. It is not known whether lobsters can detect
colors as can other decapods.
Caribbean spiny lobster inhabits tropical and subtropical
waters of the Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of
Mexico. They get their name from the forward-pointing spines
that cover their bodies to help protect them from predators.
They vary in color from almost white to dark red-orange.
Two large, cream-colored spots on the top of the second
segment of the tail make spiny lobsters easy to identify.
They have long antennae over their eyes that they wave to
scare off predators and smaller antennae-like structures
called antennules that sense movement and detect chemicals
in the water.
