On Lithodes aotearoa, it may grow as large as an person's Head (but twice as large) and is found On Chatham rise (along Neolithodes brodiei respectively). but On Neolithodes brodiei, it may grow almost of Lithodes aotearoa's weight. (including rostrum for N. brodiei and excluding for L. aotearoa): 7- for N. brodiei (188 / 195 )= -7, in some cases, Neolithodes brodiei may grow as large as 2-3 kg and behind L. aotearoa (3-4.6). Lithodes rachelae, Lithodes richeri, Lithodes australiensis, Lithodes robertsoni, Neolithodes bronwynae, Paralomis dawsoni, Paralomis zealandica behind Neolithodes brodiei and may grow not as large as N. brodiei, for some that reaches 180+ on including rostrum may not surpass N. brodiei by size but weight of N brodiei makes it surpass all except L. aotearoa.
