Crustaceans
Crustaceans live on the seabed, and many of them are considered delicacies. Here are some of the most common in our waters:
Prawn: Delicacy from the bottom of the sea. Two stocks.
Edible crab: Our most common crab.
King crab: Newcomer in Norwegian waters. Introduced by Russian scientists.
Snow crab: New species arriving from the north.
Sea urchin: Actually an echinoderm. Pest or resource?
Other crustaceans: See more crustaceans on IMR's topic pages.
Molluscs
Molluscs live from the high tide mark down to several hundred meters depth.
Mussels: Easily accessible delicacy from south to north.
Large scallop: Hiding on the bottom.
