White shrimp (Penaeus setiferus) were 34.4 per cent less abundant. The first juvenile brown shrimp of the year appeared in the April 1st samples. This group was followed by a second wave in July and a third one in August. Juvenile white shrimp were first taken in the mid-July samples, 15 days later than in 1962. White shrimp reached a peak of abundance in August with 27.4 shrimp per unit of effort and another peak in November in 28.3 shrimp per unit of effort.en-USshrimp populationCorpus Christi Baypopulation surveyTechnical Report
