Abstract

Four great rivers, the Meghna, Brahmaputra, Jamuna and Padma, course through Bangladesh, ultimately finding their way to the sea through a vast deltaic region. The drainage basins of these rivers and their estuaries are the habitat of the giant freshwater Prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii. It is truly a ‘giant’ among prawns, reaching 250 grams, although most of the catch ranges from 20 to about 100 g.
