Gonyaulacysta cladophora ssp. isovalvata

Gonyaulacysta cladophora ssp. isovaluata (Klement, 1960) Lentin and Williams, 1973

Now Rhynchodiniopsis cladophora ssp. isovalvata. Originally Gonyaulax cladophora ssp. isovalvata, subsequently Gonyaulacysta cladophora ssp. isovalvata, thirdly Hystrichogonyaulax cladophora ssp. isovalvata, fourthly (and now) Rhynchodiniopsis cladophora ssp. isovalvata.
Taxonomic senior synonym: Gonyaulax (as Rhynchodiniopsis) cladophora subsp. cladophora, by implication in Brenner (1988, p.72), who listed this subspecies as a taxonomic junior synonym of the species Rhynchodiniopsis cladophora — however, Lentin and Williams (1993, p.566) retained Gonyaulacysta (as Rhynchodiniopsis) cladophora subsp. isovalvata.

Holotype: Klement, 1960, pl.4, figs.5-6
Age: Early Kimmeridgian
