Like many lobsters and crayfish, the American lobster Homarus americanus exhibits an
ontogenetic shift from a strong, apparently predator reinforced association with sheltering
habitats early in life to an increasingly wide ranging existence as it grows. At least in part,
this shift may be related to a change in behavioral responses to predators, but neither the
sensory capabilities nor the size-specific responses of lobsters to predators are well studies.
I conducted laboratory experiments to determine the response of early benthic phase …
