Answers:
shrimp

and actually "scampi" is just a term for how it is prepared!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Scampi is a culinary name for the Norway lobster (Nephrops norvegicus), also known as the Dublin Bay prawn (especially in Ireland and the U!.K!.) and langoustine (the French name)!.[1] It is the plural of Italian scampo, but that form is rarely used in English!. The name is used loosely both in Italy and elsewhere to refer to other similar species, though some food labelling laws (in Britain, for example) define "scampi" as Nephrops norvegicus!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
