Vibrio sp. has been implicated as one of the major bacterial pathogens of shrimp. A total of 121isolates of Vibrio spp. were isolated from nineteen different sources of samples collected from shrimpaquaculture environment, located along the East coast of Bay of Bengal at Thulukenkulam and Chennai(Tamil Nadu) and Nellore (Andhra Pradesh), India during 2006-2007. The samples were tested for thepresence of Vibrio spp. from different sources of aquaculture environments. All isolates were phenotypicallycharacterized and the most frequently Vibrio spp. includes Vibrio harveyi, V. anguillarum, V. damsela, V.parahaemolyticus, V. vulnificus, V. fluvialis, V. alginolyticus, V. mimicus, V. furnissi, V. cholerae and V.ordalli. The most predominant species was V. harveyi followed by V. anguillarum, V. damsela. All theisolates of Vibrio spp. were 100% resistant to ampicillin, cloxacillin, oxacillin, erythromycin, vancomycin,penicillin G and furazolidone and followed by the enduring antibiotics used.
