| has gloss | (noun) bluish edible crab of Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of North America blue crab, Callinectes sapidus |
| has gloss | eng: The blue crab (Callinectes sapidus, from the Greek calli="beautiful", nectes="swimmer", and Latin sapidus="savory") is a crustacean found in the waters of the western Atlantic Ocean, the Pacific Coast of Central America and the Gulf of Mexico. On the Pacific Coast of Central America it is largely ignored as a food source as picking the meat is considered too difficult. It is the Maryland State Crustacean and the subject of an extensive fishery. They can deliver an extremely painful pinch and are noted for being particularly aggressive and difficult to handle safely by novice recreational crabbers. The blue crab was the subject of a story titled "Jimmy the crab" by James Michener in Chesapeake (novel). |
