Diagnosis Test large, flattened, with four to five trochospirally coiled chambers in the first whorl, then biserial with broad low and compressed chambers of nearly constant height, the flat sides being parallel to the plane of biseriality as in Cuneolina, chambers increasing rapidly in breadth on the flat sides so that test becomes flabelliform, the chambers finally strongly recurved at the margins and almost cyclic; wall agglutinated, interior with subepidermal mesh, exterior smoothly finished; aperture interiomarginal, a row of low slits at the base of the final chamber face. M. Miocene; Dominican Republic. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
