    It can be told apart from its close relative Scyllarus pygmaeus, which lives sympatrically with S. arctus, chiefly by its larger size, but also by other features such as the shape of a tubercle on the last thoracic sternite; this is flattened in S. arctus, but conical in S. pygmaeus.
    Adults of the subfamily Scyllarinae are usually small and information is very limited regarding growth and reproduction. Scyllarus arctus appears to have a continuous reproductive period where females can spawn up to three times per year [ 10 ]. The sex ratio is skewed toward females and mean size is larger in females. 4.
    S. arctus has among the smallest measured genome sizes in the Order Decapoda, at less than a third of that seen in the related genus Scyllarides. Scyllarus arctus is susceptible to white spot syndrome, and is predated upon by a wide range of demersal fish.
