Munidopsis is a genus of squat lobster. It is the second largest of all the genera of squat lobsters, after Munida, with over 200 species.[1] Its members are mainly found on continental slopes and on abyssal plains.[1] A few fossil species are also known,[2] including specimens from the Campanian (Cretaceous).[3]
