Taxonomy: Gordon (1931), Forest and Guinot (1961), Guinot (1967a), Serène and Umali (1972), Mendoza et al. (2009).
Type: Lectotype ñ in AM P40834 (designated by Mendoza et al. 2009).
Type locality: Port Denison, Western Australia.
Distribution: Eastern Indian Ocean and West Pacific: Western to northeastern Australia, Singapore, the Philippines, South China, Taiwan, Japan ( Dai and Yang 1991; Davie 2002; Mendoza et al. 2009).
Habitat: Intertidal and subtidal; substrates near shore of rock or stone ( Dai and Yang 1991).
Remarks: The only local record of Medaeus noelensis Ward, 1934 , reported in Thompson and Shin (1983), collected from benthic fauna from sludges of the Victoria Harbour, is doubtful and is probably Medaeops granulosus . Medaeus noelensis (now in the genus Danielea Ng & Clark, 2003 ) is found in intertidal habitats and among rubble in rock pools ( Ng and Clark 2003; Mendoza et al. 2014).
