Phoberocysta tabulata

Phoberocysta tabulata Raynaud, 1978, p.393–394, pl.1, figs.1–2. Emendation: Monteil, 1991b, p.476, as Muderongia tabulata.

Originally (and now) Phoberocysta, subsequently Muderongia. Poulsen (1996, p.59) retained this species in Phoberocysta.
Taxonomic junior synonyms (at specific rank): Phoberocysta neocomica subsp. convexa, Phoberocysta neocomica subsp. pteridia and Phoberocysta neocomica subsp. subovalis, all according to Monteil (1991b, p.476).

Holotype: Raynaud, 1978, pl.1, fig.1.
Age: Berriasian–Valanginian.

Poulsen, 1996, p. 59, PL.23, fig.4
Remarks. Monteil (1991b) considered Phoberocysta as a taxonomic junior synonym of Muderongia and transferred Phoberocysta tabulata Raynaud 1978 to Muderongia. This procedure is not followed here. The figured specimen is from the Pseudoceratium pelliferum Zone (of Davey 1979), latest Ryazanian-earliest Valanginian in Denmark.
