• Conservation status of the American horseshoe crab, (Limulus polyphemus): a regional assessment (2017, background): “Substantial evidence suggests that overharvest can result in depleted populations and localized extirpations (Widener and Barlow 1999; Carmichael et al. 2003; Rutecki et al. 2004; Schaller et al. 2005; Gerhart 2007; Smith et al. 2009b; McGowan et al. 2011b).”
• The Ecological Importance of Horseshoe Crabs in Estuarine and Coastal Communities: A Review and Speculative Summary (2009, background): “Delaware Bay, NJ, and Pleasant Bay, MA, suggests that there is very high mortality from eggs through the end of the first summer of life (Carmichael et al. 2003; Botton et al. 2003).”
