Deflandrea hialina

From Fensome et al., 2019:
Deflandrea hialina Balteş, 1969, p.34, pl.1, figs.3–4 ex Lentin and Williams, 1973, p.41. Holotype: Balteş, 1969, pl.1, fig.4,
designated by Lentin and Williams (1973, p.41). This name was not validly published in Balteş (1969, p.34), since
that author considered the name to be provisional. Age: Oligocene–Early Miocene.
