Cribroperidinium swithini

Cribroperidinium swithini Williams et al., 1998, p.151.

TYPE: Holotype: Sarjeant, 1984a, pl.3, figs.3-4; text-fig.3; Jan du Chêne et al., 1986a, pl.27, figs.7-10; Brenner, 1988, pl.3, figs.2,5; Fensome et al., 1995, figs.5-6 - p.1525.

HISTORY: Originally Meristaulax granulata Brenner (name illegitimate), subsequently Cribroperidinium swithini. Substitute name for Meristaulax granulata Brenner, 1988, p.65-66, pl.3, figs.2,5; the name Cribroperidinium granulatum is preoccupied.

COMMENTS: Since the epithet is based on a given name, it ends in "i" rather than "ii" (I.C.B.N. Recommendation 60C.2).

AGE: Late Jurassic.
