Agononida is a genus of squat lobsters in the family Munididae. [1] [2] [3] In 2022, recognizing that the genus as then defined was paraphyletic, it was divided into three lineages: Agononida sensu stricto and two new genera, Garymunida and Hexamunida . Agononida is distributed in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. [2]
There are 20 recognized species: [1]

Setanida cristata is a species of squat lobster in a monotypic genus in the family Munididae.
Tasmanida norfolkae is a species of squat lobster in a monotypic genus in the family Munididae.
Torbenella is a genus of squat lobsters in the family Munididae. They occur in the western Pacific Ocean.
Munididae is a family of squat lobsters, taxonomically separated from the family Galatheidae in 2010.
Garymunida procera is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae, and was first described by Shane Ahyong and Gary Poore in 2004. The specific name is derived from procerus, a Latin word meaning "slender", which is in reference to its slender cheliped that distinguish it from the similar Agononida soelae. The females measure from 14.3 to 21.4 millimetres. It is found off of Eastern Australia and New Caledonia and near the Lord Howe Rise, where it is found at depths from 450 to 960 metres.
Scolonida gracilis is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae.
Hexamunida is a genus of squat lobsters in the family Munididae. It was erected in 2022 when the then paraphyletic Agononida was divided into three lineages: Agononidasensu stricto and two new genera, Garymunida and Hexamunida. The genus name refers to the number of spines (six) along the anterior ridge of the second abdominal somite, whereas these spines number four in Agononida.
Garymunida is a genus of squat lobsters in the family Munididae. It was erected in 2022 when the then paraphyletic Agononida was divided into three lineages: Agononidasensu stricto and two new genera, Garymunida and Hexamunida. The genus name honors Gary C. B. Poore, acknowledging his "significant contributions to the study of the Galatheoidea and other crustaceans".
