Description The present Bulletin which includes catalogues of molluscs, prawns, stomatopods
and marine algae is in continuation of the two earlier ones dealing with other groups in
the Reference Collections of the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute. Of the
molluscs 366 species have been listed representing Gastropoda, Bivalvia and
Cephalopoda. A good number of them is of interest to amateur conchologists; there is
a fair representation of economically important species, and a few are rare or little
known forms of scientific interest.
Ninety-five prawn species are catalogued, the majority of which support the
important prawn fisheries of the country. Among those included here is a number of
hitherto unrecorded deep sea prawns from grounds discovered by exploratory trawling
in recent years. The collection is a very valuable one for reference purposes in view of
the great economic importance of this group.
