EMENDATION: Quattrocchio and Sarjeant (1996, p.118), as Tityrosphaeridium tenuistriatum.

TYPE: Holotype: Heisecke, 1970, pl.7, fig.1; pl.12, figs.3-4.

HISTORY: Originally Cordosphaeridium, subsequently Cordosphaeridium?, thirdly Tityrosphaeridium?, fourthly (and now) Tityrosphaeridium. Questionable assignment: Sarjeant (1981, p.121) - however, Quattrocchio and Sarjeant (1996, p.118) retained this species in Tityrosphaeridium without question.

COMMENTS: Quattrocchio and Sarjeant (1996, p.118) also proposed this combination.
