FRENCH GUIANA 



French Guiana was not visited durin:<- the course of this 

 survey. Reports indicate that the shriinp species and abundance are 

 quite compai'able to those of neighboring Surinaia. The sea bob, 

 Xiphopeneus krovcri , predoiiiinates, and the brown and the white shriinp, 

 PenaeuE aatocus and P. schmitti , are present but apparently not 

 abundant . 



It is estimated that eventual production should be about 

 the same as that for Surinam — perhaps 3 t-o 6 million pounds, heads- 

 on, a year.
