Assessing the conservation status of Palaemon sewelli
Authors

Abstract
The conservation status of Palaemon sewelli, a prawn species
endemic to the coastal and estuarine waters of Southeast Asia, is assessed
through an examination of its population densities and the impacts of human
activities. Utilizing data from trawl surveys and environmental impact studies,
this paper quantitatively delineates the species' distribution across its
range, identifies the principal threats to its survival, and discusses the
implications for its conservation. The findings highlight coastal development
as the most detrimental factor, followed by pollution and aquaculture
pressures. The study underscores the necessity for immediate conservation measures,
including habitat protection and regulation of human activities, to mitigate
threats and support the population stability of this ecologically significant
species.
