Original description: [Jain and Millepied, 1975]:
Pareodinia psilata sp. nov. (Pl. 3, Fig. 51)
Holotype - Pl. 3, Fig. 51; Slide No. 7298-11.
Type locality - Bore hole no. BR-I, depth 3135.50 metres; Senegal Basin, W. Africa.
Horizon - Albo-Aptian.
Diagnosis - Ambitus oval, no tabulation, capsule or furrows. Apical horn strong. Archacopyle absent. Surface smooth.
Measurements
Overall size: holotype: 71.5 x 46.8 μm, range: 67-73 x 43-50 μm
Apical Horn size: holotype: 26 x 8 μm, range: 20-26 x 6-8 μm
Comparison - P. aphelia Cookson & Eisenack (1958) differs in having granulate surface. P. spinosa Alberti (1961) differs in its spiny surface. P. psilata sp. nov. differs from the other known species in its psilate surface.
