Cribroperidinium globatum (Gitmez and Sarjeant, 1972, p.195,197, pl.3, figs.1-2; text-figs.5A-B) Helenes, 1984, p.124.

TYPE: Holotype: Gitmez and Sarjeant, 1972, pl.3, fig.1; text-fig.5A; Jan du Chêne et al., 1986a, pl.29, fig.3.

HISTORY: Originally Gonyaulacysta, subsequently Millioudodinium, thirdly Rhynchodiniopsis, fourthly Cribroperidinium?, fifthly (and now) Cribroperidinium.

SYNONYM(S): Taxonomic junior synonyms: Gonyaulacysta cauda and Gonyaulacysta systremmata, both according to Poulsen (1996, p.72).
