    Abstract

    Pandalid shrimp, Plesionika narval (Fabricius, 1787) was recorded from trawl fishing off Kochi (9°59’ N 76°14’E), Kerala, south-west coast of India. The specimens were obtained from deep-sea shrimp trawlers operated at a depth range of 250-300 m. Samples were collected from the Kalamuku Landing Centre on 4th April 2014. 14 males and 12 females in good condition were segregated from the mixed deep-sea shrimp doscards and their measurements recorded (Table 1). Body was transparently pinkred in colour with a pair of sub dorsal and lateral red margined white stripes extending along almost entire body length from anterior carapace to posterior abdomen.
