Genetic data

28S
rRNA.
Distribution
Chile, Perú from 280- to 800-m depth and Costa Rica at 637- m depth.
Remarks
Munidopsis barrerai
is newly recorded from Costa Rica. The general morphology of the specimen collected from Costa Rica agrees with the species described by
Bahamonde (1964)
and
Guzman and Sellanes (2015)
. Unfortunately we did not have material from Chile for genetic comparisons between populations.
