As it may be seen, of the 22 studies analysed, 19 of them showed a positive effect of the use of non-native over native species and only in three of them (studies 2, 3 and 4), the observed effect was the opposite.…”

The 2013 global farmed shrimp production totalled 4.3 million tons, whereas the production of Litopenaeus vannamei as non‐native species represented the 64% of that amount. The risks of introducing non‐native or exotic species are a growing environmental concern. Therefore, the objective of this study was to discuss updated information about the introduction of non‐native species and to evaluate the efficiency indicators of non‐native species in contrast to native ones. The results of a systematic revision of the publications about shrimp farming are presented, comparing the zootechnical performance of native and non‐native species, with the use of meta‐analysis tools. The conducted search returned 4680 results, corresponding to the articles that included one of the criteria previously established by the present work. Seven publications, which included 22 studies, met the requirements for the meta‐analysis. The effect size calculated was positive, meaning that, according to the considered data, the use of non‐native species resulted generally in higher values of growth rate in relation to the native species observed. Other aspects like the emergence and dissemination of the main viral diseases affecting global shrimp farming were also revised. We conclude that, although the advantages of using non‐native species, especially L. vannamei, over native species are clear, there are enough compelling evidences to support the viability of small‐scale native species farming. We also discussed why big companies, governments and associations related to the production and commerce of farmed shrimp should finance and support the development of native species farming.

“…On the other hand, there are studies on F. duorarum weight-length relationships (Kutkuhn, 1962;Fontaine & Neal, 1971;Hutchins, Chamberlain, & Parker, 1979;Pérez-Castañeda & Defeo, 2001), but most of them are based on commercial fisheries or aquaculture activities, and thereby do not always take into account the small juvenile stages in the results. Information in this sense is important, to know the biological characteristics of recruits, juveniles, and subadults in the natural nursery areas, and could help to understand migration in this part of the life cycle of the pink shrimp.…”

Abstract:The pink shrimp, Farfantepenaeus duorarum is an important commercial species in the Gulf of Mexico, which supports significant commercial fisheries near Dry Tortugas, in Southern Florida and in Campeche Sound, Southern Gulf of Mexico. There is information about the nictemeral behavior of the pink shrimp related to sunset, what is crucial to more accurate estimation of shrimp population biomass, and to assess the potential of this resource and its proper management. To contribute to the knowledge and the population dynamics of the species, shrimp surveys were conducted in a nursery area near "El Cayo" in the Northeastern part of Terminos Lagoon, Mexico during October 2010. Three sampling sites with substrate covered by submerged vegetation were chosen; two set of samples were collected at each site, one in the morning and the other just after sunset. Three trawls were performed per sampling site using a small otter trawl. A total of 1 418 shrimp (between 5.5 to 28.8 mm Carapace Length (CL)) were collected during the study; 1 416 F. duorarum and only two individuals of Litopenaeus setiferus. Shrimps CL and Total Length (TL) were measured in mm and individuals were weighted to the nearest 0.01 g. In general, shrimp biomass and density were significantly higher in all sites during dusk (biomass= 46.36 g.100 m -2 , n= 1 344), than daylight samples (biomass= 2.78 g.100 m -2 , n= 72). The One-way ANOVA and the Tukey test performed to evaluate variability in CL found significant differences between sites (CL= 14.12 mm, 12.46 mm and 15.13 mm, for site 1, 2 and 3 respectively, F= 64.92, P < 0.001) which might be related to the substrate type. The length-weight relationships reflected positive allometric growth for juveniles but isometric for subadults and two nonlinear power functions were estimated (W= 0.0004CL 3.157 for juveniles, and W= 0.0009CL 2.902 for subadults). The results of the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) test indicated that the Total Length -Carapace Length (TL-CL) relationships were significantly different between juveniles and subadults, and two linear equations (TL= 2.615 + 4.476CL and TL= 8.931 + 4.062CL for juveniles and subadults respectively) were fitted. It is important that population assessment takes into account the day or night period as a bias factor when sampling the abundance of the juveniles of F. duorarum in this important nursery ground of the Campeche Sound.
