Unlike Exomiphora nottinghamae, this new Exomiphora specimen was discovered in North America, from a hoard found in the state of Washington. Its oral groove is larger than that of E. nottinghamae. Genus Exomiphora exhibits notable dimorphism in the wide lateral protusions; some specimens have both sides extended, while others are asymmetrical. Nothing more is currently known of its whereabouts and host. Specimens thus far collected have been found in color morphs of red and white. Species discovered and described by occlupanologist A. Welby.
