"Green lobster" usually refers to the Green Spiny Lobster (Panulirus homarus or P. gracilis), a clawless, warm-water crustacean with a vibrant green-to-olive shell, often dotted with white spots. Found in shallow, rocky, Indo-Pacific and eastern Pacific reefs, they are prized for their sweet, tender meat and lack of the large claws found on cold-water lobsters.

- Habitat: Green lobsters thrive in tropical, shallow-water reefs, especially in areas with high wave action.
- Diet: They are omnivorous, consuming mollusks, small crustaceans, algae, and detritus.

Culinary Note: Unlike American lobsters, they lack large, meaty claws. The meat is primarily found in the tail and the legs.

Note: In some regions, a "green lobster" may also refer to a rare color morph of the American Lobster (Homarus americanus), but the spiny lobster is the more common, distinct species.
