Wallodinium elongatum (Beju, 1971) Duxbury, 1980; Emendations: Feist-Burkhardt and Monteil, 1994, p.9, as Andreedinium elongatum; Riding, 1994, p.16, as Phallocysta elongata.

NOW Phallocysta. Originally Fromea (acritarch), subsequently Fromea? (acritarch), thirdly Wallodinium, fourthly Palaeostomocystis (acritarch), fifthly Andreedinium, sixthly (and now) Phallocysta.

Locus typicus: well at Plaviceni, Roumania

Shell formed of two distinct parts: a subspherical or slightly elongated chamber prolonged by a subcylindrical or slightly conical neck, wide opened at its apical end. The transition from the chamber to the neck is gradual but always recognizable on the borders. Neck/chamber ratio 1/4 to 1/3, Shell wall relatively thin (0.5 - 1.5 µm) levigate to finely punctate. Opening wide, subcircular with smooth or slightly undulated margins.
