"population stock" plus "crab" has 2,050 hits, not significantly different from the opposite way around. Moreover. besides appearing approximately the same number of times in either order, in Portuguese "populacionais" is the adjective, and in English the first noun modifies the second noun when placed together, meaning that by logic, assuming it is not a set phrase the opposite way, which in this case it is not, "population" would have the role of the adjective.

stock population

If I"m not mistaken, it's the other way around in English: 'population' is the head noun.

stocks

e.g.

Seafish Industry Authority - the organisation which regulates the seafood industry in the UK. From training of fishermen, management of vessels, maintenance of stocks, production processes, and most importantly - the authority on nutritional values and importance of eating fish in the diet.

Evidence of stock and population being used synonymously:

The ‘intensity’ could be measured as the degree to which the individual became integrated into external populations or stocks, or the risk of fishing mortality per unit time. The
‘duration’ would be the length of time the individual would belong to the external population/stock or would
be exposed to the fishing mortality risk.
