As far as I know, it isn't missing from Mono for Android. From what little I 
can gather from Google, no Android APIs are required to transfer files over the 
USB cable [0]. I would instead surmise that if you want files from your app to 
be visible from the PC that you need to place them into 
Context.GetExternalFilesDir(string)[1] or Environment.ExternalStorageDirectory.
