Title: Potential new resources of penaeid prawns of the Mangalore coast
Abstract: Penaeid prawns belonging to the genera Parapenaeopsis,
Penaeus and Metapenaeus of the
family Penaeidae exploited by mechanised trawlers
support a fishery of considerable magnitude
along the Mangalore coast. Among the penaeid
prawns exploited Metapenaeus dobsoni, M. Monoceros,
M. qffinis, Parapenaeopsis stylifera,
Penaeus indicus and P. monodon are important
and contribute upto 90-99 % of the prawn catch
along this coast
