Diagnosis.
Differs from all other genera of Brachyiulini by lacking ocelli and by having a distally expanded promerite and a slightly shorter posterior gonopod, the latter with a basally broad and distally slender mesomerital process mostly lodged in an opisthomerital furrow.
Etymology.
The name derives from the Italian exclamation "Mamma mia" which came to our mind when we first saw this astonishing species. Gender feminine.
