Nowadays you can even find it in the Mediterranean region and the Suez Canal. In fact by doing that it has unknowingly reduced the population of the native species of shrimp of this area.   You can find the pink shrimp normally till depths of 10 meter to 30 meters. You would find them in sandy or brackish waters. The adult pink shrimp is pale grey in colour and has brown spots on its surface. They can maximum grow up to a size of 15 cm for males and 20 cm in the females. For the males, there is also the presence of a prominent curved spine.   Though the maximum weight recorded for the prawns is 170 grams the average weight that they can boast of lies in the range if 30 grams. The pink shrimp breeds continuously and its spawning season vary according to multiple factors. In India, their spawning seasons range from December to April and August to September. The pink shrimp is considered very important in coastal areas of Africa and countries like India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Turkey, Israel and Egypt.

The mud or mangrove crab is found in mangroves and estuaries of Australia, Asia and Africa. Their shell is of green or brown colour and hence the name is given. Its natural region is around the Indo Pacific area. Thus you can find it from South Africa, the Indian Ocean to the Malay Archipelago, and from southern Japan to south-eastern Australia, and as far east as Fiji and Samoa.Nowadays this species has been introduced in Hawaii and Florida. Since they were imported from American Samoa they are given the name Samoan crab in Hawaii. Their big size and delicious meat makes their demand high and led to over crabbing, To stop the same the government has had to put a ban on the crabbing of species less than 6 inches of size.The juveniles are residents of Mangroves while sub adults can be found in the high tide region. On the other hand, the adults are seen in the low tide zone. The mud crabs are cannibalistic in nature. When they are moulting they have a tendency to devour other crabs around them. Females of this species give birth to a million offspring and thus their population never goes down.

The Karikadi is a shrimp variety seen in regions of the Indian Ocean. They can be seen in the waters of Kuwait, Pakistan and Bangladesh. In fact, it has two subspecies and each is found in different zones of the Indian Ocean. Maturity length of the Karikadi is around 9 cm though its maximum length can go up to 14.5 cms.   The age of the Karikadi is around 2 years which is pretty early. In coast and depths, the Karikadi is seen at depths of 90 metres. On the other hand in muddy and sandy substrates the fish can be seen at a depth of 50 metres. Karikadi is omnivorous in temperament and its diet in normal situations includes crustaceans, mud and detritus, vegetable matter, gastropods, bivalves, diatoms, and sand particles   As and when the shrimp matures sexually its feeding intensity also increases. The Karikadi takes less than 15 months to double its population and hence it does not fall under the high-risk category at all.

A common littoral crab this one is known by multiple names across the world. In the British Isles, this species goes by the name shore crab or green shore crab. This variety is invasive in nature and has been listed in the top 100 “world's worst alien invasive species." Though it is a native to the Atlantic Ocean and the Baltic Sea it can also be found inhabiting Australia, South America and South Africa.At maturity, the carapace is of a 90 mm width and its food is usually a variety of small crustaceans, molluscs and worms. The colour of this species can vary from green, brown, grey and red. It is believed that those who delay their moulting turn into a red colour. These red ones are considered to be much more aggressive as compared to others.The presence of green crab can be harmful to the ecosystems and hence its growth is restricted externally. Native blue crab of America contributes largely to the restriction in population. It is therefore fished on a very small scale in the northeast Atlantic Ocean and 1200 tonnes are caught annually. In the native range, the green crab can be used as an important part of soups and sauce.

The Goinar is seen in the Indo Pacific region. It can be found in regions starting from the Persian Gulf to India and from the east to Papua New Guinea. Off late, this variety has been introduced in the Mediterranean region as well. The length of the Goinar at maturity is around 8.6 metre. However, it is believed that its average length would remain around 6-6.5 cm.   The weight range if the Goinar remains between 3.7 to 13.5 grams. This species is usually found in the muddy bottoms of seas ranging at a depth of around 85 metres. You can also look for them at the mouth of estuaries.   During the day time, the Goinar is found burrowing inside the mud hence the need to stay deep. At this time you only see its antennular flagella are sticking out. These antennas then help the Goinar to respirate freely. For mating, it uses its olfactory and tactile cues and indirectly transfers its sperm to the female species. Some fisheries tend to nurture the Goinar though their number is definitely less than for other species.

Cephalopods by origin Squids have large eyes, elongated bodies, two tentacles and eight arms. Similar to other counterparts they have a mantle, distinct head and bilateral symmetry. Just like an octopus, they have a very soft body but it has a small skeleton which is shaped like a pen. They use their two tentacles to grab the prey and the eight arms to hold it tight.   The beak they have is used to cut the prey into pieces and swallow it. They usually locate their prey and then by jet propulsion move very quickly to reach and attack it. Surprisingly squids are considered to be the most intelligent of all the invertebrates found on earth. Squids can also camouflage and escape from predators. They are bioluminescent and use the light also for camouflage.   In commercial fisheries found in Japan, the Mediterranean, the south-western Atlantic, the eastern Pacific the squid are nurtured for consumption. Also called Calamari you would find them being used as a popular food item in many parts of the world. Squids are also a popular presence in many mythical tales and literature across the world. They can also use ink present in their bodies to distract any kind of predators trying to attack them.

Found in the eastern Pacific Ocean the White leg shrimp as it is also known as is farmed for food on a regular basis. In some places, people also refer to it as the King prawn or the Pacific White Shrimp. On the outset, the Vannamei Shrimp can grow to a total length of 230 mm. The length of its carapace only grows to 90 mm.   The adult white leg shrimps are found in the sea at a depth of around 72 metres and the young ones can be seen thronging the estuaries. Its rostrum is moderately long and has 7-10 feet on the dorsal side while it has two to four teeth on the ventral side. The white leg shrimp is mostly found in temperatures above the level of 20 degrees.   In the 20th century, this species was very crucial for the fisherman of this region. However, by the end of the decade fisheries became overcome by aquaculture. In fact, in El Nino years the temperature rose and the population of the Vannamei Shrimp declined and vice versa. 9 years back Greenpeace foundation added the same to the seafood red list. This includes species which are easily sold in fisheries and can be easily sourced from unsustainable fisheries. In the year 2016, its global production was 55% of crustacean’s production worldwide.

The Magalaspis Cordyla or Trachurus Trachurus can be widely found in the Indopacific region. Its expanse starts from South Africa in the west to Tonga in the east. The fish usually can be seen in the topmost layers of inshore and offshore ocean waters.   Trachurus Trachurus is known for its torpedo shape and that is why it is also known by the name Torpedo Scad. You can visibly notice its finlets which are seen close to its dorsal and anal fins. The largest species of this fish was known to weigh around 4 kg with a length of 80 centimetres. However, the majority of Trachurus Trachurus found lies in the length range of less than 40 centimetres. The spawning of this breed happens between March and July and due importance is given to its reproductive cycle at that time.   The Trachurus Trachurus is a predatory fish and it avidly feeds on crustaceans and cephalopods amongst others. As this species grows the kind of diet it consumes changes however fish remains a common element. In India and regions surrounding it, the Trachurus Trachurus is given a lot of leverage. This is probably because of interest in its consumption in nearby countries like Malaysia and Indonesia. Often the Trachurus Trachurus is used by Anglers and used as a bait to catch other fish.
