Langostino is a type of crustacean that is commonly used in the restaurant trade to refer to the meat of the squat lobster, which is neither a true lobster nor a prawn. Squat lobsters are more closely related to porcelain and hermit crabs. Langostinos are no more than 8 cm (3 in) long, and weigh no more than 200 g (7 oz). They are not langoustes (spiny lobsters) despite a similar name (in Spanish, lobster is called langosta). Langostinos are sometimes confused with langoustines (Norway lobster). In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration allows "langostino" to be used as a market name for three species of squat lobster in the family Galatheidae: Cervimunida johni, Munida gregaria, and Pleuroncodes monodon. In Spain, it means some species of prawns. In Cuba and other Spanish-speaking Caribbean islands, the name langostino is also used to refer to crawfish. Langostinos have a strong, sweet, lobster-like flavor and a delicate texture that firms when cooked. They are considered a suitable substitute in recipes that call for lobster or shrimp.
