Procambarus zonangulus, the white river crawfish,[4] white river crayfish[5] or southern white river crayfish,[1][6] is a species of freshwater crayfish.
Procambarus zonangulus was originally described from Jefferson County, Hardin County and Orange County, Texas, where it lives in streams,[6] but the species' natural distribution is unclear,[7] possibly including parts of Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi.[4] It has also been introduced to other states, including Maryland[8] and West Virginia.[9][2]
P. zonangulus has become an important species for aquaculture, and 20%–30% of the crayfish harvested in Louisiana are P. zonangulus.[4] Due to the taxonomic uncertainties, this species is listed as Data Deficient on the IUCN Red List.[1]
