MUNIDA MAGNIANTENNULATA BABA & TÜRKAY, 1992
Type locality: south-western Pacific Ocean, Lau Basin, Valu-Fa Ridge.
Known range: Vent records are restricted to the Lau Basin (type locality). Non-vent records include off Australia ( Baba, 1994). It is also included (albeit only in the key) by Macpherson (1994b) in his review of species of the genus from New Caledonia and adjacent waters.
Material: type locality; SONNE; (holotype male) .
–Lau Basin, north of Hine Hina, Vaï-Lili; 23°13′S, 176°38′W; 1750 m; BIOLAU 89 sta. 2, Nautile dive BL08; 20 May 1989; MNHN Ga 2352 (non-type, 1 male) ( Baba & de Saint Laurent, 1992; Baba & Türkay, 1992; Baba, 1994; Chevaldonné & Olu, 1996).
Remarks: The original collection consisted of two specimens from hydrothermal vents in the Lau Back-Arc Basin ( Baba & Türkay, 1992). Baba & de Saint Laurent (1992) added a third specimen from the same general area. Baba (1994) later reported the species from a non-vent region off Australia (see also Chevaldonné & Olu, 1996).
