Genus Gonionida Macpherson & Baba View in CoL in Machordom, Ahyong, Andreakis, Baba, Buckley, Garcia-Jimenez, McCallum, Rodriguez-Flores & Macpherson, 2022

Remarks. Gonionida is heretofore represented by 62 species ( Machordom et al. 2022; WoRMS 2023a), all of which occur in the Indo-West Pacific. From Japanese waters, the following five species of the genus have been recorded ( Baba et al. 2008; Komai 2012, 2017; Komai & Higashiji 2016): G. andamanica ( Alcock, 1894) , G. kuboi ( Yanagita, 1943) , G. michaeli ( Komai, 2017) , G. pilorhyncha ( Miyake & Baba, 1966) , and G. pollioculus ( Komai & Higashiji, 2016) . In this study, one new species, G. kaimei , is described based on a single specimen from Shoho Seamount, Nishi-Shichito Ridge.
