Munida Leach, 1820

Munida Leach, 1820: 52 .

Remarks. Davie (2002) reported 12 species of Munida from Australia. Twelve species of Munida are reported below. Seven are described as new, and three are new records for the study area. Haig’s (1973) record of M. japonica Stimpson, 1858 , from Western Australia is based on M. rogeri Macpherson, 1994 , and her records of M. microps Alcock, 1894 from New South Wales are referable to M. endeavourae n. sp. and M. isos n. sp., both described below. Baba’s (1994) record of M. microps from Queensland appears to be based on a different species (see discussion under account of M. asprosoma n. sp.). Therefore, M. microps is excluded from the key below. Part of Haig’s (1973) material identified as M. haswelli Henderson, 1885 is referable to M. chydaea n. sp. The 19 species of Munida now known from Australia are distinguished in the key below.
