Based on its distinct externalornamentation and internal characteristics, it has been classified as Cymostrophia (Protocymostrophia). It isconcluded that the three specices described by Liu and Huang (1977), Idioglyptus alatus, I. semicircularis,I. subquadratus, as well as the Mesodouvillina jilinensis Su, 1980 should be considered synonyms and benamed Cymostrophia (Protocymostrophia) alatus (Liu) Li.展开更多
