Let \((\lambda_i)^\infty_{i= 0}\) be an increasing sequence of nonnegative real numbers, and let \[ M= \text{span}\{x^{\lambda_0}, x^{\lambda_1},\dots\}. \] Müntz proved that \(M\) is dense in \(C[0, 1]\) if and only if \(\sum^\infty_{i=1} 1/\lambda_i= \infty\). This paper deals with the bounded Remez-type inequality for non-dense Müntz spaces \[ \text{span}\left\{x^{\lambda_i}: \lambda_i\in\mathbb{R}, i\in\mathbb{Z}\right\}. \] The main result of the paper is the following Theorem 3.1: Suppose \((\lambda_i)^\infty_{i= 1}\) is a sequence of distinct real numbers satisfying \[ \sum^\infty_{i=- \infty} {1\over|\lambda_i|}< \infty.\tag{1} \] Then there is a constant \(c\) depending only on \((\lambda_i)^\infty_{i=- \infty}\), \(A\), \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) (and not on the number of terms in \(p\)) so that \(\| p\|_{[\alpha,\beta]}\leq c\| p\|_A\), for every Müntz polynomial \(p(x):= \sum^n_{i=- n}a_i x^{\lambda_i}\), for every set \(A\subset (0,\infty)\) of positive Lebesgue measure, and for every \([\alpha,\beta]\subset (\text{ess inf }A, \text{ ess sup }A)\). The representation \(f(x)= \sum^\infty_{i= -\infty} a_ix^{\lambda_i}\), \(x\in(a, b)\), for \(f\in C(A)\), follows from (1) and the gap condition \(\inf\{\lambda_i- \lambda_{i- 1}: i\in\mathbb{Z}\}> 0\) (Theorem 3.3). Seven new results, including the above ones, are proved in the paper. Their respective proofs are reduced to some previously known results concerning Müntz spaces with exponents of the same sign.
