  abstract = {{T}ropical shrimp fisheries are characterized by various interactions with their natural environment and with other fisheries. {T}hese latter interactions can be explained by the high quantity of bycatch taken by industrial trawler fleets, which has a significant impact on fish populations associated with shrimps and thus also on finfish fisheries. {B}ycatch also includes emblematic species, which are subject to strict conservation measures decided by the international community. {I}t seems important to identify and assess the biological and economic consequences of different mitigation measures (increase of mesh size, turtle excluder devices and bycatch reducing devices). {T}his communication is based on case studies undertaken on the {I}ndian white prawn ({F}enneropenaeus indicus) and speckled shrimp ({M}etapenaeus monoceros) fisheries in {M}adagascar and on the brown shrimp ({F}arfantepenaeus subtilis) and pink spotted shrimp ({F}arfantepenaeus brasiliensis) fishery in {F}rench {G}uiana. {A} review of the impacts of these fisheries on resources and ecosystems is made and some results of experiments on mitigation devices given. {F}inally, the results of simulations obtained using a multi-species, multi-fleet, age-structured bioeconomic model, including modifications of catchability and costs related to the adoption of these devices, is presented and discussed.},
