Comments Fensome et al., 2019a:
Jain & Millepied (1975, p. 152) described this species as being “… covered with long, bifurcate processes. As the species lacks dorsoventral areas devoid of ornament and the ornament is less that 25% of the maximum cyst width, we retain it in Tenua.
Stratigraphical occurrence. Jain & Millepied (1975) recovered this species from the Campanian–Maastrichtian of western Africa.
