Munida pectinata Machordom and Macpherson, 2005: 828 View in CoL , fig. 3 (type locality: New Caledonia). — Baba, 2008: 112 View Cited Treatment . — Komai, 2011: 359, fig. 10, 11D (colour) ( Japan 96–221 m). — Komai, 2012: 38 (Izu islands, 174–192 m).

Material examined. Western Australia: NMV J55268 About NMV , 4 males (2 damaged; cl 10.8 mm, pcl 6.5 mm; cl 18.4 mm, pcl 10.7 mm), 17° 35.706' S, 118° 58.902' E to 17° 35.346' S, 118° 58.794' E, 108–140 m, SS05/2007 stn 62, 16 June 2007 GoogleMaps .

Colour. Carapace and somites 2–4 pale orange with dark orange markings, somites 5–6 and telson pale orange. Rostrum and supraocular spines orange. Chela merus pink with red bands, remaining chela mottled orange. P2–4 white with orange/red bands.

Genetic data. COI and 16S; see Table 1.

Remarks. These Australian specimens of M. pectinata agree well with illustrations of type material from New Caledonia, extending the range to eastern Indian Ocean. The north-western Australian sequences of COI (639 bp) and 16S were identical to two sequences from New Caledonia. This is the first record of M. pectinata from Australia.

Distribution. New Caledonia, Japan and north-western Australia, 96– 240 m.
