Macrobrachium rosenbergii, also known as the giant river prawn or giant freshwater prawn, is a commercially important species of palaemonid freshwater prawn. It is found throughout the tropical and subtropical areas of the Indo-Pacific region, from India to Southeast Asia and Northern Australia.[2] The giant freshwater prawn has also been introduced to parts of Africa, Thailand, China, Japan, New Zealand, the Americas, and the Caribbean.[3] It is one of the biggest freshwater prawns in the world, and is widely cultivated in several countries for food.[2] While M. rosenbergii is considered a freshwater species, the larval stage of the animal depends on brackish water.[4] Once the individual shrimp has grown beyond the planktonic stage and becomes a juvenile, it lives entirely in fresh water.[4]

It is also known as the Malaysian prawn, freshwater scampi (India), or cherabin (Australia). Locally, it is known as golda chingri (Bengali: গলদা চিংড়ি) in Bangladesh and India, udang galah in Indonesia and Malaysia, uwáng or uláng in the Philippines, Thailand prawn in Southern China and Taiwan (Chinese: Tàiguó xiā 泰國蝦),[5] and koong mae nam (กุ้งแม่น้ำ) or koong ghram gram (กุ้งก้ามกราม) in Thailand.[3]
