Palaeohystrichophora minuta

Palaeohystrichophora minuta Deflandre and Cookson, 1955, p.257

Now Diconodinium. Originally Palaeohystrichophora, subsequently (and now) Diconodinium.
Taxonomic junior synonym: Deflandrea (as Alterbia; now Spinidinium) balmei, according to Morgan (1977, p.130) — however, Lentin and Williams (1981, p.156) retained Deflandrea (as Isabelidinium) balmei.
This name was not validly published in Deflandre and Cookson (1954, p.1236) since no description was given.

Holotype: Deflandre and Cookson, 1955, text-fig.4
Age: Santonian
