Yes if you go to the source I provided it explains that they "are most commonly found in the Gulf of Mexico and along the northern Atlantic coast of North America." It is also the only horseshoe crab found in North America. The others are found in Asia
This was found on the Gulf Coast, so would it still be an Atlantic Horseshoe Crab?
