It is well developed (A, Figure 11: 9), or a bit regressed (B, Figure 11: 7-8). The mesolophid is short (C, Figure 11: 7), or middle developed (B, Figure 11: 8).

Hasznos (KORDOS 1986), different localities from Switzerland and Southern Germany (HEISSIG 1989, BOLLIGER 1994, 2000, SACK 1999), Sansan (BAUDELOT 1972), Luc-sur-Orbieu (AGUILAR 1980). The stratigraphical range of the species is MN5-MN7 after BOLLIGER 1994. A more restricted range: MN6-MN7 was published by KÄLIN (1997). In the immediate past KÄLIN & ENGESSER (2001) described M. minor from the Early Vallesian (MN 9) fauna of Nebelbergweg.
