Meridiosignum View in CoL sp.

( Fig. 16 View FIGURE 16 )

Material examined. 1 ♀, Falkland Islands, Pt. Albermarle, Albermarle Harbour, 52°90’S, 60°33’W, 15 m, sand with algae, Swedish South Polar Expedition 1901–03, stn 56, SMNH 79543 View Materials .

Remarks. Nordenstam labeled the single female Paramunna kerguelensis Vanhöffen , but did not publish it in his 1933 study. The specimen belongs in Meridiosignum . It is similar to females of Meridiosignum menziesi ( Winkler, 1994) shown by Doti and Roccatagliata (2009) from south-eastern Argentine and the southernmost Magellanic

area, but without pereiopods and an adult male for comparison we cannot make a definite identification. We record it here to further document the distribution of the genus.
