TYPE: Holotype: Deflandre, 1937b, pl.16 (al. pl.13), fig.4. HISTORY: NOW: Prolixosphaeridium granulosum. Originally Hystrichosphaeridium xanthiopyxides var. granulosum, subsequently Baltisphaeridium xanthiopyxides var. granulosum (combination not validly published, Appendix A), thirdly Baltisphaeridium granulosum, fourthly (and now) Prolixosphaeridium granulosum. SYNONYM(S): Taxonomic junior synonyms (at specific rank): Baltisphaeridium pilosum var. longispinosum (as Tenua pilosa subsp. longispinosa), according to Sarjeant (1976c, p.19) - however, Erkmen and Sarjeant (1980, p.64-65) considered Baltisphaeridium pilosum var. longispinosum to be a taxonomic junior synonym (at specific rank) of Prolixosphaeridium anasillum; Prolixosphaeridium anasillum, according to Lentin and Williams (1993, p.539) - however, this synonymy was based on a mis-reading of Erkmen and Sarjeant (1980).
