Diagnosis Test of moderate size, subcylindrical to fusiform, up to 11.3 mm in length, up to nine or ten volutions, septa increasing from eleven in the first whorl up to thirty-eight in later whorls, intensely and regularly fluted from pole to pole, resulting in high and welldeveloped cuniculi, septal loops high with bluntly squared tops as seen in section; wall thin in early volutions, consisting of tectum and keriotheca, the latter thickening in the outer whorls and becoming coarsely alveolar, widespread secondary deposits thickening the tops of the septal loops, no well-defined median tunnel, supplementary tunnels sporadic and discontinuous in the megalospheric test but may be present in the microspheric one. M. Permian (L. Kungurian), L. Guadalupian; USA: Texas. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
