Abstract
Analysis of molting state of male and reproductive state of female golden king crabs Lithodes aequispius in January–December on the continental slope of the Eastern Okhotsk Sea was accomplished based on the data collected in 1998–2006 and 2019–2020. Dominance of molting state of males and mature egg stage of females was revealed during one year. Results of the research of molting process and temporal dynamics in male aggregations obviously indicate of purposeless temporal banning of fishing golden king crabs within the West Kamchatka fishery subzone.
