[FR] A fin de clarifier la position systématique de Munida japonica Stimpson, 1858, qui a été confondue avec plusieurs autres especes formant un complexe, un néotype de cette espece, en provenance de Kagoshima au Japon, est désigné et décrit. L'examen des types de M. heteracantha Ortmann, 1892, de M. semoni Ortmann, 1894 (précédemment mise en synonymie avec M. heteracantha) et de M. honslmensis Benedict, 1902 (précédemment considérée comme synonyme de M. japonica), montre que toutes ces especes sont valides. La comparaison de ces diverses especes avec de nombreux spécimens récoltés aux Philippines. en Indonésie, au lapon et dans l'océan Indien occidental, conduit a la description de 13 especes nouvelles, pro ches des précédentes
[EN] In order to clarify the systematic status of Munida japonica Stimpson,1858, which has been mixed with several other species constituting a complex, a neotype of this species from Kagoshima, Japan, is selected and described. Examination of the type materials of M. heteracantha Ortmann, 1892, M. semoni Ortmann, 1894 (previously merged with M. Izeteracantha) and M. honshuensis Benedict, 1902 (previously considered synonymous with M. japonica), discloses that they are valid species. Comparison of these species with numerous specimens from the Philippines, Indonesia, J apan, and the western Indian Ocean yields 13 new relatives species to be described
