Extra details from original publication
Discussion — The new genus accommodates several lower-middle Eocene species that have generally been placed in Morozovella in recent years, but which are believed to have evolved from Acarinina. The concept of Morozovelloides was developed in discussions with R.D. Norris (pers. comm., 2001).
Stratigraphic range — Restricted to the middle Eocene, Zones E7-E13.
