Lejeunecysta catomus

Lejeunecysta catomus (Harland in Harland et al., 1991, p.651,653, figs.4d-e) Lentin and Williams, 1993, p.383.

TYPE: Holotype: Harland et al., 1991, fig.4d.

HISTORY: Originally Protoperidinium subgenus Protoperidinium section Lejeunecysta (section name not validly published; Appendix B), subsequently (and now) Lejeunecysta.

COMMENTS: Contrary to the opinion of Lentin and Williams (1993, p.383), the name Protoperidinium catomus was validly published in Harland in Harland et al. (1991) since, although Lejeunecysta as a section name was not validly published, the species was assigned to the validly published generic name Protoperidinium.

ETYMOLOGY: N.I.A.

AGE: Early Pleistocene.
