Description Prawns form an important constituent of
the marine fish resources of the country. The average
annual landing of penaeid prawns during the year
1989 was 1,46,753 t which attained 2,14,741 t in 1998
and 2,32,327 t in 2009. The postlarvae of most of the
penaeid prawns migrate from the sea towards the
shallow inshore and estuarine regions and settle
down to the bottom, adopting a benthic habit.
