Diagnosis "Carapace elongate-subtriangular in lateral outline, inequilateral; dorsal margin steeply arched with more or less distinct dorsal angle, located at or slightly anterior to midlength; anterior margin evenly rounded and slightly truncate; ventral indentation fairly deep, broad, angulate; posteroventral margin slightly upswung; posterior margin broadly and obliquely rounded, posterior angle slightly truncate, about 45° to 50°; zone of concrescence irregularly broad; patch pattern consisting of four irregular, small scars." (Maddocks, 1990: 113) [details]Dimensions "Holotype 2264, RVL 1.11 mm, RVH 0.47mm." (Maddocks, 1990: 113) [details]

Remark "Mn. bonaducei is slightly higher and more broadly rounded anteriorly and posteriorly than Mn. captiosa, with smaller, separate, opaque spots and a less angulate ventral indentation. It is much smaller than Mn. okinawae, with a less prominent dorsal angle and less narrowly terminated posterior end. It is larger, less elongate, and more deeply indented ventrally than the species reported as "Macrocypris sp." by Bonaduce et al. (1976), which is another species of Macrocyprina that also occurs in the Gulf of Aqaba. (Maddocks, 1990: 113) [details]
