Galathea serricornis Lovén, 1852: 22

Munidopsis serricornis .—Baba et al. 2008: 159 (list of references and synonymies).

Material examined. MAURIT 0 911, Stn L20, 975– 984 m, 1 male 7.7 mm.

Remarks. Our specimen agrees well with those described for the Atlantic Ocean by Selbie (1914, as Munidopsis (Galathodes) tridentata), Mayo (1974), Baba (1988) and Baba & Poore (2002).

Distribution. In the Atlantic Ocean, M. serricornis has been recorded from the Scandinavian coast and Iceland to Cape Verde Islands including the Mediterranean Sea, Mid-Atlantic Ridge and from off Georgia to Dominica in the west side. In the Indo-Pacific, it is reported from Madagascar to Sri Lanka, Malay Archipelago and southwestern Australia. The bathymetrical range varies between 145 to 2165 m deep. This is the first record from the Mauritania coast.
