The present study reports on the squat lobster genus Munida Leach, 1820 (Anomura: Munididae) collected in the Ogasawara Islands during the Project “Studies on the Origin of Bio- diversity in the Sagami Sea Fossa Magna Element and the Izu-Ogasawara (Bonin) Arc” in 2006–2010, carried out by the National Museum and Nature and Science. Six species were iden- tified, including four new species: M. disiunctus sp. nov., M. honshuensis Benedict, 1902, M. koyo sp. nov., M. longinquus sp. nov., M. munin sp. nov., and M pectinata Macpherson and Ma- chordom, 2005.

E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] 4Corresponding author Abstract Decapod crustaceans were studied in the Marquesas Islands, French Polynesia, between 50–550 m by using a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) equipped with high resolution cameras and an articulated arm. Careful examination of videos and photographs combined with previous inventories made in the area with conventional gears allowed the identification of 30 species, including 20 species-level determinations. Species identified belong to shrimps (Penaeoidea, Stenopodidea, and Caridea), lobsters (Astacidea and Achelata), anomurans (Galatheoidea and Paguroidea), and brachyuran crabs (Dromioidea, Homolodromioidea, Raninoidea, Leucosioidea, Majoidea, Parthenopoidea, Portunoidea, and Trapezioidea). Most of these species were observed and photographed in situ for the first time. A discussion is given on the geographic distribution, density, ecology, and behavior.

ABSTRACT During the MUSORSTOM 9 cruise (August-September 1997) to the Marquesas Islands, galatheids belonging to the genera Crosnierita Macpherson, 1998 (one species), Munida Leach, 1820 (4 species, one of which is new) and Paramunida Baba, 1988 (one new species) were collected. The two new species, Munida glabella and Paramunida echinata, are described and illustrated. M. glabella is close to M. pusiola Macpherson, 1993 from the Philippines. It belongs to the group of small size species that have five spines on the lateral borders of the carapace posterior to the cervical groove, no spines on the second abdominal somite and the distolateral spine of the basal antennal segment shorter than the distomesial spine. P. echinata is close to P. labis Macpherson, 1996 from the Wallis and Futuna Islands. It is charac­ terised by the absence of ridges on the thoracic sternites and the presence of a spinous process on the distomesial spine of the second antennal segment.

Le nouveau genre Crosnierita est etabli pour trois especes de crus- taces galatheides : C. dicata n.sp., Munida urizae Macpherson, 1994 et M. yante Macpherson, 1994, ces deux dernieres especes ayant ete precedem- ment placees dans le genre Agononida. Le nouveau genre est caracterise par : MOTS CLES I'absence de pleopodes sur le premier segment abdominal des males ; le bord Crustacea, rostral profondement concave ; le bord lateral du segment basal des anten- Decapoda, Galatheidae, nules portant deux epines en plus des epines distales ; les troisieme et quatrie- Crosnierita, me segments du pedoncule antennaire de taille reduite et avec le merits du nouveau genre troisieme maxillipede tres reduit.

Careful examination of videos and photographs combined with previous inventories made in the area with conventional gears allowed the identification of 30 species, including 20 species-level determinations. Species identified belong to shrimps (Penaeoidea, Stenopodidea, and Caridea), lobsters (Astacidea and Achelata), anomurans (Galatheoidea and Paguroidea), and brachyuran crabs (Dromioidea, Homolodromioidea, Raninoidea, Leucosioidea, Majoidea, Parthenopoidea, Portunoidea, and Trapezioidea). Most of these species were observed and photographed in situ for the first time. A discussion is given on the geographic distribution, density, ecology, and behavior.
