Prawns are shrimp-like crustaceans, belonging to the sub-order Dendrobranchiata. Prawns are distinguished from the superficially similar shrimp by the gill structure which is branching in prawns (hence the name, dendro="tree"; branchia="gill"), but is lamellar in shrimp. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prawn

They are basically shrimp if you are talking about cuisine. True definition: Any of various edible crustaceans similar to but larger than the shrimps. http://www.answers.com/topic/prawn?cat=health
