"Phoberocysta ceratioides" (Deflandre, 1937b, p.66-67, pl.12 [al. pl.9], figs.7-8) Davey and Verdier, 1971, p.26.

TYPE: Holotype: Deflandre, 1937b, pl.12 (al. pl.9), figs.7-8; Fensome et al., 1991, fig.1 - p.601; fig.1 - p.605.

HISTORY: NOW: Xenascus. Originally Hystrichosphaera, subsequently Pseudoceratium, thirdly Spiniferites, fourthly Phoberocysta, fifthly (and now) Xenascus.

SYNONYM(S): Taxonomic junior synonyms: Endoceratium (now Xenascus) perforatum, according to Davey and Verdier (1971, p.27) - however, Yun Hyesu (1981, p.62) retained Xenascus perforatus; Xenascus australensis, according to Davey and Verdier (1971, p.26) - however, Lentin and Williams (1985, p.374) retained Xenascus australensis; Odontochitina blastema, according to Davey and Verdier (1971, p.27) - however, Stover and Helby (1987a, p.128) retained Odontochitina (as Xenascus) blastema.

COMMENTS: This combination was not validly published in Millioud (1969, p.432), since that author did not clearly use the name Phoberocysta ceratioides.

AGE: Senonian.
