Dactylonida is a small genus of squat lobsters in the family Munididae.[1][2][3] It was erected in 2022 to accommodate two species formerly placed in Munida, one of them (Dactylonida curvimana) from the East Atlantic and the other (Dactylonida mexicana) from the Central-Eastern Pacific.[3]
The genus Dactylonida name combines the Greek daktylos (=finger) and the genus name, Munida, and refers to the very long fingers on the chelipeds characteristic for the genus.[3]
