HOMARUS GAMMARUS (LINNAEUS, 1758) Type locality : Marstrand, west coast of Sweden, approximately 57°53′N, 11°32′E (Holthuis, 1991). Known range : eastern Atlantic from north-western Norway south to the Azores and the Atlantic coast of Morocco; also along the north-west coast of Black Sea and in the Mediterranean (Holthuis, 1991: 60). Occurrence at vents or seeps : off Kattegat, Denmark (see below). Remarks : Levin et al . (2000: 23) listed the occurrence of Homarus vulgaris on ‘bubbling reefs’ off Kattegat, Denmark, citing Jensen et al . (1992) as the original source of the record. Apparently no specimens were collected from this site. The species H . vulgaris Milne-Edwards is considered a junior synonym of H . gammarus (Linnaeus), known as the European lobster. : Published as part of Martin, Joel W. & Haney, Todd A., 2005, Decapod crustaceans from hydrothermal vents and cold seeps: a review through 2005, pp. 445-522 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 145 (4) on page 499, DOI: 10.1111/j.1096-3642.2005.00178.x, http://zenodo.org/record/5434828 : {"references": ["Linnaeus C. 1758.
