No, they don't tail notch berried female lobsters where I live. But I know what you're talking about. I'm diving for Spiny Lobster in California. I think you may be thinking of American Lobster (aka Maine Lobster). Same Order (Decapoda), but different Family/Genus/Species. Also, ours don't have pincers! :-D I say I dive for lobsters... I do dive, but I have yet to actually catch one! I caught one out of season just to practice, but put it back.
