Munididae is a family of squat lobsters, taxonomically separated from the family Galatheidae in 2010. [1]
The squat lobsters in the family Munididae can be distinguished from other families by the presence of a trispinose frontal edge to the carapace, as well as a central rostrum, and two spines extend forward from above the eyes. [1] Although a few species enter shallow water, the majority of species in the Munididae are deep-water taxa, in contrast to the mostly shallow-water Galatheidae. [1]
Many of the genera included in the family Munididae had previously been included in a wider circumscription of the family Galatheidae. [1] The following genera are now recognised: [2]
