What kind of green crayfish is it?

Green shell crayfish generally refers to corrugated lobster, also known as Qinglong and Qingke. The whole body is turquoise, which is easy to distinguish. Although there is also production of corrugated lobster in Taiwan Province Province of China, the output can't meet the domestic demand, and it relies on Vietnamese imports to supply the market demand all the year round.

Corrugated lobsters are big, and the ordinary specifications can reach 300 grams, more than half a catty, and the larger corrugated lobsters can reach several catties. So far, the corrugated lobster mainly depends on wild fishing, so the annual output is quite limited and the price is relatively expensive. It belongs to high-end aquatic products and is very popular with high-end consumers in China. Ripple lobster can adapt to turbid water and harsh conditions, so it is the main species of lobster. In addition, the wild yield of corrugated lobster is quite high, and it is the largest lobster imported from China. It can often be seen in the market that the market price is around 200 yuan/kg.
