Scarlet prawns caught by BCF ship OREGON II during explorations for new shrimp grounds off northeastern South America

Scarlet prawns caught by BCF ship OREGON II during explorations for new shrimp grounds off northeastern South America. This large deepwater species is widely distributed on the continental slope between 300 adn 1,000 fathoms in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. These depths are well beyond the reach of present-day U.S. shrimp trawlers.
