Shanita thawtinti n. sp. is proposed for a pillared milioloid foraminifer found from Middle Permian strata of the Nwabangyi Formation of the Plateau Limestone Group, exposed in the western Shan Plateau of Myanmar. The new species is character- ized by its extraordinary large size of mature test and large numbers of volutions. In contrast to the previously assigned ages for other spe- cies of Shanita, the age of the new species is considered to be Murgabian (=Wordian) based on the occurrence between beds of the index fusulinacean species, Neoschwagerina craticulifera below and Neoschwagerina margaritae above.
