Genus: Monoculodes
Name
Monoculodes muwoni Jo, 1990 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Monoculodes muwoni Synonymy: Jo, 1990: 164–168, figs 5–7.
Material
10 specimens, TIO 3, Monkey Bay, Pulau Tioman, 2 2°49'33"N, 104°9'45"E, coral rubble, Azman, B.A.R., Josim, J.J., 22 August 1996; 1 specimen, TIO 21, Renggis, Pulau Tioman, 2°48'35"N, 104°8'6"E, seagrass, Azman, B.A.R., Rayida, J., 15 July 1999.
Remarks
The Pulau Tioman specimens closely resemble Jo’s (1990)[1] figures described from the Korean peninsula; since then it has not been recorded anywhere else. The short and rather stout rostrum, propodus length of gnathopod 2, parallel sided telson and poorly produced posterodistal corner of coxal plate 4 are several characters unique to this species. However, the identification is not fully satisfactory in the following respects: the long carpal lobes of gnathopods and the double spine rows of the inner ramus of uropod 2. Otherwise, all specimens agree with Monoculodes muwoni.
