Species and proportion of economic crabs from local fishing in Ban Thorn, Khok Khian, Mueang Narathiwat district, Narathiwat province and Ban Pa Mai, Don Sai, Mai Kaen district, Pattani province were studied. The field works were conducted during March to May 2019. Only Family Portunidae with four species namely Portunus pelagicus, Charybdis feriatus, Portunus sanguinolentus and Scylla spp. were found in both areas. Furthermore, the study aimed to investigate of proportion of economic crabs in Ban Thorn and Ban Pa Mai. The results showed that P. pelagicus, C. feriatus, P. sanguinolentus and Scylla spp. were 62.39, 28.54, 8.76 and 0.29%, respectively (in Ban Thorn). The proportion of P. pelagicus, C. feriatus, P. sanguinolentus and Scylla spp. were 58.82, 20.18, 19.94 and 1.04%, respectively (in Ban Pa Mai). Moreover, this research was studied about fisheries activity from local fishing in Ban Thorn, Khok Khian, Mueang Narathiwat district, Narathiwat province and Ban Pa Mai, Don Sai, Mai Kaen district, Pattani province. The results found that the majority of the fishing gears were fishing nets and crab traps in Ban Thorn and Ban Pa Mai. Average income of fishermen in both areas is 1,311+128 Baht per day.
