Abstract The native bacterial flora of ocean fresh tropical prawns, Penaeus indicus, Metapenaeus
dobsoni and M. affinis was more or less similar, mainly consisting of Pseudomonas,
Acinetobacter, Moraxella and Arthrobacter. A definite succession of
bacterial genera during iced storage was observed in these prawns. As the day of ice
storage increased, the proportion of Acinetobacter and Moraxella also increased
considerably and consituted 70-78% of the flora at the t1me of spoilage. Spodage
by Pseudomonas was very msignificant in prawns under iced storage.
