Description The suborder Dendrobranchiata constitute a diverse group of marine decapods with over
533 species under 68 genera ( De Grave and Fransen, 2011). Globally distributed, and inhabiting
both shallow waters and abyssal zones below 5000 m, they occupy different trophic levels of
the food chain at various water depths in the ocean (PĂ©rez Farfante and Kensley, 1997). This
group includes most of the prawns of high economic value that account for over one-third of
the annual wild crustacean catch (FAO, 2009).
