Homarus is a genus of lobsters, which include the common and commercially significant species Homarus americanus (the American lobster) and Homarus gammarus (the European lobster).[1] The Cape lobster, which was formerly in this genus as H. capensis, was moved in 1995 to the new genus Homarinus.[2]
