Abstract:

The present paper is based on the study of gastric mill of four species of penaeid prawn belonging to genus Parapenaeopsis. A careful examination of gastric mill with particular emphasis on the position and structure of plates and ossicles has revealed that each ossicle is specific and shape may also afford important generic characters.
