"*Compositosphaeridium bulgaricum" Erkmen and Sarjeant, 1980, p.66-67.

TYPE: Holotype: Dodekova, 1974, pl.1, figs.4-6, text-fig.1, as Compositosphaeridium costatum, designated by Erkmen and Sarjeant (1980, p.67).

HISTORY: NOW: Compositosphaeridium Dodekova. Originally Compositosphaeridium Erkmen and Sarjeant, subsequently (and now) Compositosphaeridium Dodekova.

SYNONYM(S): Taxonomic senior synonym: Hystrichosphaeridium (as Compositosphaeridium) polonicum, according to Dodekova (1990, p.9) - however, Stancliffe and Sarjeant (1990, p.203) retained Compositosphaeridium bulgaricum.

COMMENTS: Following I.C.B.N. Article 55.1, the species name Compositosphaeridium bulgarium is validly published even though the generic name Compositosphaeridium Erkmen and Sarjeant is illegitimate.
