Diagnosis Test a high trochospiral, with somewhat inflated chambers, their inner surfaces thickened by a secondary deposit of shell material but lacking the solid central columella present in Pfenderina; wall of imperforate microgranular calcite; aperture a low arch at the base of the apertural face of the final chamber, covered by a finely perforate hemispherical apertural plate, space between the apertural face and apertural plate filled by a porous endoskeletal deposit, secondary intercameral foramina connected by a shallow groove or subcameral tunnel that spirals around the axis of coiling. M. Jurassic (Bathonian or Callovian); Saudia Arabia. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
