(Smooth) Pink Shrimp
Pandalus jordani
Ocean pink shrimp
are almost identical in size and coloration to the northern (rough)
pink shrimp, but the spine is absent from the third tail segment.
Commercial shrimpers
off the Washington coast harvest large numbers of this species.
Ocean pinks are also found in southern Puget Sound, through they
are occasionally captured in northern Puget Sound too.
