The lobster lives in the north of Tasmania, which has been heavily impacted since the arrival of Europeans in the early 19th century. Habitat degradation and overfishing have led to the species being listed as 'Vulnerable' on the National and State Threatened Species lists. Recovery of the animal depends on reducing illegal fishing and the protection and repair of habitat. Awareness is seen as the single most important aspect of the lobster's recovery. An awareness and population monitoring program has been running successfully since late 1997.
