During the course of its embryonic development, the Canadian lobster Homarus americav~us MILNE-EDWARDS exhibits steady increases in water content (56.2 to 86.8%) and ash (5.8 to 21.2 %), and a progressive decrease in energy content from 6636 to 4292 cal/g dry weight. Mean dry weight of a single egg
## Abstract The mechanical and electrical activity of the closer muscle is compared in the cutter and crusher claws of the lobster __Homarus americanus__. Two excitor axons innervate the closer muscle. In the cutter the fast axon produces twitch contractions in response to single stimuli while its
1. The extensor, accessory flexor, bender, and closer muscles of the lobster leg were confirmed to be innervated by a single common inhibitory axon branch, denoted CI~, whose activation does not influence the remaining leg muscles in most autotomized limbs. 2. The flexor, stretcher, reductor, and r
