A. Adams named the genus from Mino-Sima, the little island near Niphon (Japan).

Margarites Gray, 1847 ).
The thin, delicate, smooth shell is depressed and widely umbilicated. The
whorls are rounded or angulated. The
spire is depressed. The
sculpture is finely decussated. The
aperture is circular. The
outer lip and
columella thin, simple, acute. The
umbilicus is simple and contains no spiral, callous internal funicle or rib.
