Brigantedinium
From Fensome et al., 2019:
Brigantedinium, Reid, 1977, p.432 ex Lentin and Williams, 1993, p.67.
Originally Brigantedinium (name not validly published), subsequently Protoperidinium subgenus Protoperidinium section Brigantedinium (name not validly published), thirdly (and now) Brigantedinium.
The generic name Brigantedinium was not validly published in Reid (1977) since the name of the "type species", Brigantedinium simplex (which see), was not validly published, there being no accompanying Latin diagnosis, a requirement prior to 2012 since this species is based on living
material (and for purposes of the Code considered an alga; ICN Article 44.1). The name Brigantedinium was not validly published in Harland et al. (1980, p.22), since these authors did not provide a direct reference to the diagnosis for the genus (ICN Article 33.1). By providing complete citations for the names Brigantedinium and Brigantedinium simplex, including Latin diagnoses, Lentin and Williams (1993, p.67) validated both names. Reid (1977, p.432) provided a Latin diagnosis.
Type: Wall, 1965b, text-figs.7,20, as Chytroeisphaeridia simplex.
