Remarks. The genus was erected as part of a molecular and morphological review, distinguishing its only species from its larger sister genus Corallianassa ( Poore et al., 2019; Robles et al., 2020). The type species had been placed in Neocallichirus Sakai, 1988 , from which it appears far removed genetically. Mucrollichirus is notable for the weakly lobed propodus on pereopod 3 (fig. 6f), the short telson (fig. 6a, d) and the somewhat swollen propodus of the major cheliped (fig. 6g, m).
