Composition Systematics in the Exoskeleton of the American Lobster, Homarus americanus and Implications for Malacostraca
Studies of biominerals from the exoskeletons of lobsters and other crustaceans report chemical heterogeneities across disparate body parts that have prevented the development of composition-based environmental proxy models. Anecdotal evidence, however, suggests underlying composition systematics may...
