    There are no species of lobsters that are illegal to catch.  What does make a lobster illegal to catch is the size / weight and where they are harvested from.  In some areas lobsters are overfished.  To prevent this, size and weight restraints are placed on the catch.  Lobsters cannot be caught in protected waters such as the waters off the Florida Keys.
