Funchalia

Funchalia is a genus of deep-water prawns of the family Penaeidae. Six species are currently recognised:
 * Funchalia danae Burkenroad, 1940
 * Funchalia meridionalis (Lenz & Strunck, 1914)
 * Funchalia sagamiensis Fujino, 1975
 * Funchalia taaningi Burkenroad, 1940
 * Funchalia villosa (Bouvier, 1905)
 * Funchalia woodwardi Johnson, 1868

Few specimens of Funchalia are present in museum collections, mostly due to the lack of sampling at the great depths where it lives. It probably has a cosmopolitan distribution.

The genus was erected in 1868, when James Yate Johnson erected it for the species Funchalia woodwardi, which he had collected off Madeira; the specific epithet commemorated Henry Woodward of the British Museum.
