Tenua americana

From Fensome et al., 2019:
Tenua? americana (Pöthe de Baldis and Ramos, 1983, p.432–433, pl.1, figs.6,9) Prössl, 1992b, p.116.
Holotype: Pöthe de Baldis and Ramos, 1983, pl.1, fig.9.
Originally Canningia, subsequently Tenua? Eisenack.
Questionable assignment: Prössl (1992b, p.116); and Courtinat in Fauconnier and Masure (2004, p.557) as a problematic species.
Taxonomic senior synonym: Tenua hystrix, according to Fensome et al. (2019a, p.48).
This combination was not validly published in Prössl (1990, p.99), since that author did not fully reference the basionym.
Age: early Aptian.
