or Dublin Bay prawn or Norway lobster
Edible lobster ( Nephrops norvegicus ), widespread in the Mediterranean and northeastern Atlantic.
It is sold as a delicacy over much of its range. Scampi live in burrows on soft sea bottoms at depths of 33 to 820 ft (10250 m). They grow to about 8 in. (200 mm) long and weigh about 7 oz (200 g). The slender claws may be almost as long as the body. Most scampi are trawled, but some are caught in baited lobster pots.
