Endoscrinium granulatum
From Fensome et al., 2019:
Endoscrinium granulatum (Raynaud, 1978, p.391–392, pl.2, figs.6,12) Lentin and Williams, 1981, p.97. Holotype: Raynaud,
1978, pl.2, fig.6; Jan du Chêne et al., 1986a, pl.111, figs.13–14. Originally Athigmatocysta, subsequently (and now)
Endoscrinium, thirdly Scriniodinium. Lentin and Williams (1993, p.209) retained this species in Endoscrinium.
Age: late Kimmeridgian–Portlandian.

Translation Courtinat, 1989: LPP
Remark: Courtinat, 1989, p.216
E. granulatum is characterized by the strongly granulate endophragm at the antapical pole. However this local granulation may be unnoticed depending on the orientation of the cyst. The outline is variable; it corresponds to that of Sirmiodinium grossii or that of Polygonifera evittii.
