Cyclonephelium castelcasiense ssp. prominentum
Cyclonephelium? castelcasiense ssp. prominentum Marheinecke, 1992
Name not validly published since lodgment of holotype not specified.
Holotype: Marheinecke, 1992, pl.15, figs.1-4
Locus typicus: Hemmoor, Lower Saxony, Germany
Stratum typicum: Late Maastrichtian
Translation Marheinecke, 1992: LPP
Original descripition: Marheinecke, 1992, p. 73
Cyst habit marginate, lenticulate. Central body subsphaerical to ovaloidal. The antapex shows a asymmetrical protrusion, like a short, blunt horn. Wall composed of pedium and luxuria. Luxuria develops a clear granulation. Granulation on the dorsal surface intraareate surrounded by peniareae zones without or reduced granulation. On ventral surface granulation evenly developed. Lateral and antapical luxuria as a high number of thin, ?solid processes developed. The process length reaches 1/2 of the central bodies breadth. Distally the processes are connected to a granulate membrane, which covers the process bearing parts of the cyst completely. Areation: Indicated by the archaeopyle and the intraareate granulation on the dorsal surface. Archaeopyle: Apical, 1"+2"+3"+4". Operculum secate, ?foederate.
Affinities:
Marheinecke, 1992, p. 73: This subspecies differs from C. Castelcasiense in having longer processes and the better defined membrane.
