Description A marked difference in growth rate was observed between males and
females of Parapenaeus longipes at Mniigaloie. The relationships both between
length and weight and between total length and carapace length were different
in the sexes. Though smallest prawn that was found with fully mature ovary
was 55 mm, it was at 68 mm and above that majority of the prawns were mature.
Females generally outnumbered males in the catches. Percentage of maturity
among females was highest in May.
