Microdinium reticulatum

Microdinium reticulatum Vozzhennikova, 1967, p.96-97, pl.37, figs.2-5.

TYPE: Holotype: Vozzhennikova, 1967, pl.37, fig.2; Lentin and Vozzhennikova, 1990, text-fig.62; lost according to Lentin and Vozzhennikova (1990, p.107).

HISTORY: Originally (and now) Microdinium, subsequently Microdinium?. Questionable assignment: Stover and Evitt (1978, p.66) - however, Lentin and Vozzhennikova (1990, p.107) included the species in Microdinium without question.

COMMENTS: According to Lentin and Vozzhennikova (1990, p.107), no potential lectotype is available and the name should be restricted to the type.

AGE: Eocene.
