  abstract = {{T}wo electrofishing procedures (point abundance sampling and removal sampling) for estimating community structure and the abundance of freshwater shrimps (#{D}ecapoda$ : #{N}atantia$) were compared at five sites in the {G}rand-{C}arbet {R}iver, {G}uadeloupe, {F}rench {W}est {I}ndies, on the basis of species richness, species frequency and the length of caught individuals. {S}ampling was carried out using battery-powered portable electric fishing gear. {B}oth point abundance sampling and removal procedures highlighted a steep longitudinal gradient related to the shrimp fauna and non consistent discrepancy was observed between the two procedures in the different sites. {T}hus, the choice of one of these two procedures will depend only on the study objective. {T}he benefits and disadvantages of these two electrofishing procedures are concisely discussed.
