Scriniodinium galeritum ssp. fornicatum
Scriniodinium galeritum ssp. fornicatum Klement, 1960, p.25-26
Now Endoscrinium galeritum ssp. fornicatum. Originally Scriniodinium galeritum ssp. fornicatum, subsequently (and now) Endoscrinium galeritum ssp. fornicatum.
Jan du Chene et al., 1986 and Brenner, 1988 retained this taxon in Scriniodinium; however, Lentin and Williams, 1989 retained the taxon in Endoscrinium (Klement, 1960) Vozzhennikova, 1967 as a subspecies of Endoscrinium galeritum (Deflandre, 1938) Vozzhennikova, 1967.
Holotype: Klement, 1960, pl.1, figs.7-8; Jan du Chene et al., 1986, pl.107, figs.4-6
Paratypes: Klement, 1960
Locus typicus: Scherstetten 1 Bore
Stratum typicum: Middle Oxfordian
Translation Klement: LPP
Original diagnosis: Klement, 1960, p.25
A subspecies of Scriniodinium (endoscrinium) galeritum, characterized by apical, antapical and marginal thickened bulge of the outer shell. It is marginally not flattened. Spiral girdle furrow, slightly indented, of medium breadth. Offset of the ends about two girdle widths. Plates convexly vaulted; sutures thickened lash-shaped.
Dimensions: Holotype: outer shell 89:75 µm, inner body 66:63 µm
Affinities: Klement, 1960, p. 26
The thickened bulges of the external membrane are a good distinctive criterium to the related subspecies S. galeritum galeritum.
