Membranilarnacia tenella
Membranilarnacia? tenella Morgenroth, 1968
Originally Membranilarnacia, subsequently (and now) Membranilarnacia?.
Stover and Evitt, 1978, considered this to be a provisionally accepted species of Membranilarnacia.
Holotype: Morgenroth, 1968, pl.48, figs.2-3
Age: Danian

G.L. Williams short notes on species, Mesozoic-Cenozoic dinocyst course, Urbino, Italy, May 17-22, 1999 - LPP VIEWER CD-ROM 99.5.
Membranilarnacia tenella Morgenroth, 1968, has a thin-walled, spherical to slightly ellipsoidal central body, with a smooth to granular surface. There are 30-40 slender, solid processes which may have tiny perforations. Process length is less than the lower radius of the central body. The processes are distally united through a structureless unbroken membrane. Size: length of central body 39-47 µm, width 31-43 µm, processes 8-17 µm.
