Scriniodinium? nilsii Kjellström, 1973
Tax. jr. synonym of Paralecaniella indentata (Deflandre and Cookson, 1955) Cookson and Eisenack, 1970, according to Jan du Chêne et al., 1986.
Kjellström, 1973 questionably included this species in Scriniodinium.
Stover and Evitt, 1978 considered it to be a "problematical species" of Scriniodinium, suggesting it may be Paralecaniella indentata (Deflandre and Cookson, 1955) Cookson and Eisenack, 1970.
Holotype: Kjellström, 1973, fig.35
Locus typicus: Höllviken Borehole No.1, Scania, Sweden
Stratum typicum: Middle-late Maastrichtian
Original diagnosis: Kjellström, 1973, p.42
?Scriniodinium with ovoid, granular theca and spherical, psilate central capsule. No tabulation and no cingulum recorded. No archaeopyle formation recorded.
Dimensions - Diameter of theca: 85 µm, diameter of central capsule: 70 µm.
