ABSTRACT 



A total of 1,303 references are given. 



INTRODUCTION 



This bibliography was begun in the summer 

 of 1964. It was mimeographed and distributed 

 at a meeting of United States and Canadian 

 scientists concerned with the biology of the 

 American lobster held on November 9-10, 

 1965, at the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries 

 Laboratory, West Boothbay Harbor, Maine. 



References in the 1965 manuscript were 

 compiled from the original papers, their cita- 

 tions, and the bibliographies of Herrick (191 1), 

 Scattergood (1949), and Dawson (1954). The 

 present list also includes references from 

 the bibliography of Bergeron (1965). 



About 80 percent of the references were 

 found in the library of the Marine Biological 

 Laboratory at Woods Hole, Mass., and the 

 rest at the libraries of the Fisheries Research 

 Board of Canada, Biological Station, St. 



Andrews, New Brunswick; the Bureau of Com- 

 mercial Fisheries Biological Laboratory, West 

 Boothbay Harbor, Maine; and the Department 

 of Interior Library and the Library of 

 Congress, Washington, D.C. 



Lists of references that I had overlooked 

 in the 1965 manuscript were provided by 

 H. J. Thomas, Department of Agriculture and 

 Fisheries for Scotland, Marine Laboratory, 

 Aberdeen; D. G. Wilder, Fisheries Research 

 Board of Canada, Biological Station, St. 

 Andrews, New Brunswick; and R.J. Ghelardi, 

 Fisheries Research Board of Canada, Biologi- 

 cal Station, Nanamio, British Columbia. 

 The library staffs of the Marine Bio- 

 logical Laboratory at Woods Hole and the 

 Biological Station at St. Andrews assisted 

 me.
