Aquatic Animal Diseases Significant to Australia:
Identification Field Guide 4th Edition

Crustaceans

Prawn


The common names ‘prawn’ and ‘shrimp’ are often used synonymously for the same crustaceans in different parts of the world. This field guide uses the terms most commonly used in Australia. Where Australian species of crustaceans are primarily involved in the disease, they are referred to as prawns. However, where the species of crustacean involved in the disease are exotic to Australia, they are referred to as shrimp.
