Juveniles in sea grass bed areas in shallow waters. Limited existence in estuarine environment. Majority attain maturity at 31-32 mm carapace length. Spawning throughout the year. No spawning migration of the species in the Gulf of Mannar and Palk Bay (Thomas, 1974). Rao et al., (1993) studied growth rate of the species landed at Mandapam during 1986-88 from mechanised trawlers (Male: L\u03b1210 mm, K 1.7 Y-1, length at 6 months 120 mm, length at 12 months 170 mm; Female: L\u03b1261 mm, K 1.3 Y-1, length at 6 months 135 mm, length at 12 months 195 mm).<\/p><p><b>Data on target species:<\/b>\u00a0Yes, stock assessment data available.

Data is collected by multistage stratified random sampling. Sear ranching of this species was done by CMFRI in the Palk Bay and found ranched population get recruited to the fishery (Rao\u00a0<i>et al<\/i>.,1989; Pillai<i>\u00a0et al.<\/i>,1991; Rao\u00a0<i>et al.<\/i>,1993:)<\/p><p><b>Fishing activities:<\/b>\u00a0The species is caught using mechanised trawl net, disco gill net and\u00a0<i>thalluvalai<\/i>.\u00a0<i>Thalluvalai<\/i>\u00a0is used for fishing prawns from the inshore waters of the Gulf of Mannar and Palk Bay. Disco gill net is operated south of Tuticorin in the Gulf of Mannar and in Palk Bay off Devipattinam and other places (Rajamani, 2013). Both male and female caught. Fishing throughout the year. Size range71-225 mm in male and 60-280 mm in female. Along the Tinnalvelly coast, the species is fished from three grounds namely Pattanamudur- Tuticorin, Punnaikayal and Manapad ranging respectively in depth from 0 to 2 m, 8 to 20 m and 15 to 30 m. Prawns in maturing stages are always found in the deeper fishing grounds indicating that they move to deeper water for breeding (Manisseri, 1986).<\/p><p><b>Volume caught<\/b><\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1958 alignnone size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ssni.co.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/image1-2.png\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ssni.co.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/image1-2.png 600w, https:\/\/ssni.co.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/image1-2-300x180.png 300w\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"360\" \/><\/p><p><b>Ecosystem impacts:<\/b>\u00a0<i>Thallumadi<\/i>\u00a0(indigenous trawl net) also employed in shallow waters and\u00a0seagrass beds.<\/p><p><b>Threat to sustainability:<\/b>Operation of\u00a0<i>thalluvalai<\/i>\u00a0which catch the juvenile\u00a0<i>P. semisulcatus<\/i>\u00a0from the sea grass beds in nearshore waters (3-4 m depth) is a threat to sustainability of the resource, as sea grass beds are their nursery grounds.
