Abstract

We examined the sex ratio, and insemination rate of Parapenaeus fissuroides and Parapenaeus lanceolatus using samples collected near Cheju Island, Korea, in January 2005. Females were more numerous than males in both species, and based on the gonad color pattern, sex ratio, and insemination rate, the spawning period of these shrimps was determined to be during winter.
