Distal part of the operculum composed of 4–10 parallel tiers and terminating with a single distal spine or hook (Fig. 13); tube with one or three irregular, rounded longitudinal keels. Thoracic membranes reaching to the end of thorax, but no apron. Remarks. Literature records need to be checked since some are misidentified (some examples from the Indo- Pacific have been given in the synonymy, above). Besides, there are doubts if this essentially temperate/subtropical species can occur in the tropics. There are two major types, one is large animals with opercula having only 2–3 "disks", the top one is wide and nearly flat, with a distinct hook in the centre, probably M. acanthophora sensu stricto; another is much smaller, with opercula reminding pine cones, made of many (up to 20) "disks" or flanges, tapering to the top, with more or less developed hook on the top or without the hook altogether, the latter form attributed to M. nates here. Distribution. Indo-West Pacific, South Japan to Australia.
