Excerpt from A List of References on the Biology of Shrimp (Family Penaeidae) The references contained in this bibliography were com piled by the authors in the course of biological studies on com mercially important shrimp, a phase of the work carried on by the Gulf Fishery Investigations, U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The references are listed only by authors. Although we recognize the limitations imposed by the lack of subject and taxonomic in dexes, we decided to release the bibliography in this form to make it immediately available to other workers. In order to keep the bibliography within reasonable compass, only those references which contain specific mention of shrimp be longing to the family Penaeidae are included. Because many of the publications were not available to us, some are listed incompletely or possibly erroneously; those we were unable to consult have been marked with an asterisk. No attempt was made to gather refer ences on subjects such as the technological aspects of the shrimp processing industry, palaeontological studies, or shrimp statistics, but a few references in those fields are listed. Shrimp statistics are published annually in the Fishery Statistics of the United States by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Articles dealing with fishing methods and gear have been included because of their general interest to fishery biologists. We hope that any errors or omissions will be brought to our attention.
