Fecundity and rate of embryonic development of the lobster, Homarus gammarus (L), off the coast of North Wales

A two year study of lobsters off the coast of North Wales showed that fecundity was linearly related to carapace length by the equation: egg numbers = 217·74 carapace length (mm) − 12 490·30. Embryonic development was rapid during the autumn, slow during the winter and then rapid again in the spring...
