Abstract

Stomatopods are a neglected fishery resource among the crustaceans, though it is a common bycatch in trawl fishing. They are commercially exploited in certain countries, but in India, they find market only as a raw material for preparation of fish meal and poultry feed. In Japan, Orataria orataria (de Haan, 1844) and in mediterranean countries, Squilla mantis (Linnaeus, 1758) form a good fishery and are relished as human food.
