king crab is meat of large cold-water crab; mainly leg meat
Like all crabs, the Dungeness crab is high in protein and minerals and low in fat. About one quarter of this crab's weight is meat, making it one of the meatiest crabs available. Most of the meat is in the eight legs and two claws, although the body contains plenty as well.

King crabs are caught in Alaska. Dungeness in northern California. Also king crabs have extremely long legs and are a lighter color.

these are two different species of crab. the alaskan king crab has legs sometimes several feet in length, while the dungeness looks like your typical crab.

The difference is where they are caught. Only crabs caught at Dungeness are dungeness crabs. It is just marketing to make you think they are vastly different.

I'll wager there is not much difference at all. Therefore, I shall have a lucky guess and recommend the King Crab, dear boy.
