Updated: 2004-11-01

Two studies were carried out (October 1993 and March 1994) each lasting 24 hours, at one site in the Embley River, Gulf of Carpentaria. Juvenile prawn samples were collected every 2 hours by hand scoop or beam trawl in the river. Data were collected on gut fullness, moult stage, and prey type and number.
