==Classification== Classification within the order Decapoda depends on the structure of the [[gill]]s and legs, and the way in which the [[larva]]e develop, giving rise to two suborders: [[Dendrobranchiata]] and [[Pleocyemata]]. The Dendrobranchiata consist of prawns, including many species colloquially referred to as "shrimp", such as the "white shrimp", ''[[Litopenaeus setiferus]]''. The Pleocyemata include the remaining groups, including "true shrimp".<ref>{{cite book |author=Elena Mente |year=2008 |title=Reproductive Biology of Crustaceans: Case Studies of Decapod Crustaceans |publisher=[[Science Publishers]] |isbn=978-1-57808-529-3 |page=16}}</ref> Those groups that usually walk rather than swim (Pleocyemata, excluding Stenopodidea and Caridea) form a clade called Reptantia.<ref>{{cite journal |author1=G.
