Munida guineae Miyake & Baba, 1970: 81 , fig 7.—Baba et al. 2008: 98 (compilation).— Muñoz et al. 2012: 482 (Guinea- Bissau, 603–869 m).

Material examined. MAURIT 1107, Stn L64, 452– 468 m, 1 male 19.1 mm.

Remarks. Our specimen agrees well with the holotype description. The spinulation and the morphology of the abdominal tergite 4 and maxilliped 3 point out that this material belongs undoubtedly to M. guineae .

Distribution. Only known from off Rio Muni ( Equatorial Guinea) (Type locality) and Guinea-Bissau, between 260 and 869 m deep ( Miyake & Baba 1970; Muñoz et al. 2012). This record extends the northern distribution to Mauritania.
