Description The east coast of India with a coast line of 2,688
km and continental shelf area of about 0.56 million
km2, provides a good habitat for the penaeid prawns
in the adult phase. There are five major perennial
rivers, number of creeks and low-lying areas offering
nursery grounds for post larvae and juveniles that
migrate to the sea after completion of nursery phase
to get recruited to the fishery. Though as many as
23 species of penaeids are recorded along the east
coast only about 19 species are supporting the
regular fishery
