Prawns are decapod crustaceans, belonging to the sub-order Dendrobranchiata.[3] The term "prawn" is also used in various contexts for other animals, especially caridean shrimp.[4] They are found worldwide and include commercially significant species, such as the whiteleg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei, Atlantic white shrimp Penaeus setiferus, Indian prawn Fenneropenaeus indicus and tiger prawn Penaeus monodon.
