The genus Macridiscus Dall, 1902 contains a few species present in warm temperate to tropical faunas of the western Pacific. Macridiscus was widely accepted as a subgenus of Gomphina until a recent suggestion that it should be separated from Gomphina and elevated to an independent genus, based on morphology and molecular data.
