Lejeunecysta psilodora
Lejeunecysta? psilodora (Benedek, 1972, p.42, pl.6, fig.5) Artzner and Dörhöfer, 1978, p.1381
Originally Lejeunia (an illegitimate generic name), subsequently Lejeunia? (an illegitimate generic name), thirdly (and now) Lejeunecysta?. Questionable assignment: Stover and Evitt (1978, p.112) as Lejeunia psilodora.
Taxonomic senior synonym: Selenopemphix nephroides, according to Benedek and Sarjeant (1981, p.333) - however, Lentin and Williams (1985, p.217) and Head (1993, p.36) retained Lejeunecysta psilodora.
Holotype: Benedek, 1972, pl.6, fig.5
Locus typicus: T÷nisberg, Germany
Stratum typicum: Middle Oligocene
Translation Benedek, 1972: LPP
Original diagnosis: Benedek, 1972, p.42: Lejeunia psilodora
Large species of the genus Lejeunia with weakly granulate capsule membrane, transverse furrow weakly, longitudinal furrow not indicated. Pylome developed by the loss of plate 2a.
Original description: Benedek, 1972, p.42: Lejeunia psilodora
Large theca with bilateralsymmetrical-pentagonal outline. Cingulum weakly indicated in optical cross-section, longitudinal furrow not indicated. Thin, finely granulate capsule membrane brownish. Epitheca small, conical, ending in a wide, rounded apical horn. Hypotheca ends in two large but unequal antapical lobes.
All specimens with large, rounded-trapezoidal opening near the apex.
Dimensions: Capsule length 95(90/96) Ám, breadth ca. 75-78 Ám (10 specimens measured).
