Some Aspects of the Biology of Gammarellus homari (Crustacea, Amphipoda) in the Northwestern Atlantic
Gammarellus homari is a sublittoral Atlantic amphipod found from eastern Newfoundland and the northern Gulf of St. Lawrence north to Ellesmere Island. It is distinguished from G. angulosus by its larger size, smaller eyes and when alive by its red coloration. It appears to produce a single brood of...
