THE RIVER SHRIMP MACROBRACHIUM OHIONE (SMITH) (DECAPODA, PALAEMONIDAE): ITS ABUNDANCE, REPRODUCTION, AND GROWTH IN THE ATCHAFALAYA RIVER BASIN OF LOUISIANA, U.S.A. 1) BY FRANK M. TRUESDALE and WARREN J. MERMILLIOD School of Forestry and Wildlife Management, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70803, U.S.A. The river shrimp Macrobrachium ohione ( Smith, 1 874 ) occurs from Ohio and Illinois south to Louisiana in the Mississippi Valley, from Texas to Alabama in Gulf of Mexico coastal drainages, and from Virginia to northern Florida on the Atlantic slope (Holthuis, 1952). Although M. ohione once existed in fisheries in several parts of the Mississippi Valley (Forbes, 1876; Gunter, 1937; Hay, 1882; McCormick, 1934) and is still fished extensively in Louisiana for bait and human consumption (Mermilliod, 1976), few published accounts of this species' life history and ecology are available. As part of a baseline study of the Atchafalaya River Basin, Louisiana, sponsored by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Contract No. 14-16-008-767), we gathered two years' I field and laboratory data concerning abundance, reproduction and growth of the river shrimp. STUDY AREA The Atchafalaya Basin naturally covered an area of approximately 4662 km2 but flood-control
