Abstract
Aggressive, courtship, mating and neutral social interactions were observed between male‐female pairs of lobster, H. americanus under several different conditions. The data indicate that these lobsters do not mate during the latter stages of the intermolt phase of the molt cycle; that post‐molt females are sexually receptive and polygamous; and that water obtained from these post‐molt females elicits a chemokinetic response from intermolt males, but does not release courtship and mating responses.
