| Summary: | Austronanus dentatus (Nordenstam, 1933), comb. nov. (Fig. 8) Paramunna dentata Nordenstam, 1933: 139 –141, fig. 65. Remarks on type material. Nordenstam (1933: 239) designated ' Male and female, length about 1 mm.' as 'Types', and reported (p. 241) an additional 6 specimens, all from the Swedish Antarctic Expedition 1901–1903, stn 51. We have examined a sample labelled 'Type777 syntypes' in the Swedish Museum of Natural History. It contains two microvials, one of which is labelled ' Type specimens' and holds 2 males, one without pleopod I. The other holds 4 females, 2 of which are badly damaged lacking the head. We do not know of the whereabouts of the remaining 2 syntypes. All specimens are in a poor state of preservation, being covered with a 'felt' of fine needlelike crystalline precipitate that cannot be physically removed. In addition to the habitus drawing mentioned (no sex given), Nordenstam (his fig. 65) illustrated the following details: pereopods I and II (female), left antenna (female), right ... : Published as part of Just, Jean & Wilson, George D.
