Mass Migration of Spiny Lobster, Panulirus argus (Crustacea: Palinuridae): Synopsis and Orientation
1978During autumnal mass migrations of spiny lobster in the northern Bahamas, large numbers move from the shallows to the areas fringing oceanic waters (e.g., the Gulf Stream). The phenomenon involves nocturnal immigration of lobsters over several weeks into the fringe. Concurrent with the first severe autumnal squall, the population moves synchronously in
