A Preliminary Survey of the Cancrid Crabs in Nova Scotia Coastal Waters (Curatorial Report #7)

Abstract

In 1966-1967, the Nova Scotia Museum conducted a crab survey in order to obtain information on the distribution of the common rock crab and the jonah crab. The specimens collected from various localities along the coast of Nova Scotia were identified, sexed, and measured. The purpose of this publication is to record these observations and the results of the survey.
