| Mercer Island, WA Posts: 492 | Ralph- I believe what David indicated was that the photos don't have a view of the body part(s) necessary to reliably identify it to genus, let alone species, so he confirmed the family is Cambaridae, and indicated it was probably of genus Orconectes, but could also be genus Cambarus or Procambarus. | |

| Posts: 106 | As Taxon stated you must have morphological features to identify. However, if you wish to impress your friends you could just call it: Crayfishus vulgarus or Crayfishus motherfuckus! tight lines and stay away from those pinchers gene www.eugenemacri.com | |
