Munida marini Macpherson, 1994: 492 , 495, figs. 30, 77 [type locality: New Caledonia]. Agononida marini . — Ahyong & Poore 2004: 9 –10. — Baba 2005: 233, 235.

Material examined. Norfolk Ridge: NIWA 28072, 1 male (16.3 mm), 1 female (19.0 mm), 33°23.41’S, 170°11.58’E, 469–526 m, TAN0308/126 # 38 sp. 19, 31 May 2003.

Remarks. The specimens agree well with published accounts, exhibiting similar variation in abdominal spination to that reported by Ahyong & Poore (2004). Abdominal tergite 4 bears two anterior spines in the male, four in the female.

Distribution. New Caledonia, eastern Australia, and now from northern New Zealand; 457–548 m ( Ahyong & Poore 2004).
