Lobster \Lob"ster\, n. [AS. loppestre, lopystre prob., corrupted
fr. L. locusta a marine shellfish, a kind of lobster, a
locust. Cf. {Locust}.] (Zool.)
1. Any large macrurous crustacean used as food, esp. those of
the genus {Homarus}; as the American lobster ({Homarus
Americanus}), and the European lobster ({Homarus
vulgaris}). The Norwegian lobster ({Nephrops Norvegicus})
is similar in form. All these have a pair of large unequal
claws. The spiny lobsters of more southern waters,
belonging to {Palinurus}, {Panulirus}, and allied genera,
have no large claws. The fresh-water crayfishes are
sometimes called lobsters.
[1913 Webster]

2. As a term of opprobrium or contempt: A gullible, awkward,
bungling, or undesirable person. [Slang]
[Webster 1913 Suppl.]

{Lobster caterpillar} (Zool.), the caterpillar of a European
bombycid moth ({Stauropus fagi}); -- so called from its
form.

{Lobster louse} (Zool.), a copepod crustacean ({Nicotho["e]
astaci}) parasitic on the gills of the European lobster.
