This page should probably be listed under "Snow crab" or "Opilio" instead of "Queen crab" since "Snow crab" and "Opilio" are much more common names internationally. In fact, Japanese know what "opilio" means even though they have their own native word for it. --Koshki 07:49, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I have come across several examples where a crustacean is known by wildly differing names around the world. In such instances, I think it is usually best to have the article under the scientific name, since that is the only name that is fixed and not open to argument. And particularly if "queen crab", "snow crab", "tanner crab" "bairdi" and so on refer to individual species (as must be the case for some of those names), it would make most sense to have the current article, which refers to the whole genus Chionoecetes, under Chionoecetes. --Stemonitis 16:00 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

No-one spoke out against the move to Chionoecetes, and since Tasmanian giant crab is also known as Queen crab, I think the latter will have to become a disambig, and this article will be moved as mentioned above. I'll do that now. --Stemonitis 09:05, 19 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Could someone add a redirect for Snow Crab. I had a hard time finding this page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.213.255.176 (talk) 22:43, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Agreed -someone should add a redirect for Snow Crab and Opilio. This article should be expanded to contain more information regarding the species (e.g., life cycle, preferred foods, natural predators, fishing season, etc...) and to link it to other articles.
