Abstract
Two new species of Munida (M. gordoni and M. grieveae) and one new species of Agononida (A. nielbrucei) are described from volcanic seamounts off northern New Zealand (RV ‘Tangaroa’, National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research [NIWA], New Zealand). Description of new species and preliminary examination of NIWA collections reveal unusually high endemism of volcanic seamount populations of Galatheidae.
