Dactylonida is a small genus of squat lobsters in the family Munididae. [1] [2] [3] It was erected in 2022 to accommodate two species formerly placed in Munida , one of them ( Dactylonida curvimana ) from the East Atlantic and the other ( Dactylonida mexicana ) from the Central-Eastern Pacific. [3]
The genus Dactylonida name combines the Greek daktylos (=finger) and the genus name, Munida, and refers to the very long fingers on the chelipeds characteristic for the genus. [3]
There are two recognized species: [1]
Agononida is a genus of squat lobsters in the family Munididae. In 2022, recognizing that the genus as then defined was paraphyletic, it was divided into three lineages: Agononidasensu stricto and two new genera, Garymunida and Hexamunida. Agononida is distributed in the Indian and Pacific Oceans.
Anomoeomunida is a monotypic squat lobster genus in the family Munididae. The sole a species of is Anomoeomunida caribensis. It occurs in the western Atlantic.
Babamunida is a genus of squat lobsters in the family Munididae. The genus occurs in the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans, with the greatest diversity in the Pacific.
Garymunida aequabilis is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae. It occurs in the Pacific Ocean. The specific name is derived from the Latin aequabilis, meaning "equal", or "similar", in reference to its similarity to Garymunida pilosimanus.
Garymunida analoga is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae. It is found in the Indo-Pacific. The specific name is derived from the Greek analogos, meaning "resembling", which is in reference to its similarity to both Agononida squamosa and Agononida similis.
Garymunida garciai is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae. It occurs in the western Pacific Ocean near New Guinea and Fiji. The specific name is in reference to Antoni García Rubies.
Garymunida isabelensis is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae. The species name is from Isabel, one of the Solomon Islands. The males measure from 6.8 to 20.7 millimetres and the females from 5.7 to 31.5 millimetres. It is found off of the Solomon Islands, as the specific epithet implies. It is found at depths between about 240 and 350 metres.
Garymunida longipes is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae. It occurs in the westernAtlantic Ocean.
Garymunida prolixa is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae. It can be found in the Andaman and Arabian Seas, at depths between about 240 and 750 metres.
Garymunida similis is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae. The males measure from 13.1 to 21.3 millimetres and the females from 11.3 to 18.4 millimetres. It is found off of the Philippines, at depths between 290 and 495 metres.
Hexamunida tenuipes is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae. It is found off of Japan.
Babamunida brucei is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae. It is found off of the east coast of Africa, at depths of about 120 metres (390 ft).
Babamunida callista is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae. It is found off of New Caledonia and Chesterfield Islands, at depths between 400 and 590 metres.
Babamunida hystrix is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae. It is found off of French Polynesia and the Tuamotu Islands, at depths between about 100 and 290 metres.
Babamunida javieri is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae. It is found off of New Caledonia, the Chesterfield Islands, and the Matthew and Hunter Islands, at depths between about 280 and 440 metres.
Babamunida plexaura is a species of squat lobster in the family Munididae. It is found off of Tuamotus and the Tubuai Islands, at depths between about 350 and 400 metres.
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".
Scolonida is a small genus of squat lobsters in the family Munididae. It was erected in 2022 to accommodate three species previously placed in the genus Munida. The genus name combines the Greek scolos (=spine) and the genus name, Munida, and refers to the presence of protogastric spines that characterize the genus.
Leptonida is a small genus of squat lobsters in the family Munididae. It was erected in 2022 to accommodate Munida delicata, now Leptonida delicata, in a major revision of the genus Munida. At the time, it was monotypic, but the World Register of Marine Species lists another species not mentioned in the 2022 revision. Leptonida delicata occurs in south-western Pacific Ocean.
