Original description Diagnosis: A representative of the Parathuramminida is characterized by elongate chambers and large pseudo- septa. The test is multilocular and uniserial and presents a planispiral to trochospiral coiling. The microgranular wall is dark colored and thin. The last chambers show the development of a proboscis-like terminated by a simple aperture, which is notable at each growth stage. Most of the specimens present spines on their last chamber (between 1 and 3).
Occurrence Epimonella is recorded in Northern England (Anderson 1964). Microproblematica sensu Tien (1979) was described in Late Midian series of Cambodia. Asche- monella sp. sensu Nestell and Nestell (2006) is present in the Capitanian of Texas.
Stratigraphic range: Wordian-Capitanian.
