Spiniferites pseudofurcatus ssp. granulosus
Spiniferites pseudofurcatus ssp. granulosus Schioler, 1993
Holotype: Schioler, 1993, pl.4, fig.2
Paratypes: Schioler, 1993
Locus typicus: Dan Field, Danish North Sea
Stratum typicum: Maastrichtian
Original diagnosis: Schioler, 1993, p.111
A skolochorate gonyaulacoid cyst in which the endo- and periphragm are appressed between the processes. The processes occupy gonal positions and terminate bifurcate to tetrafurcate and never ramify. Low septal crests connect the processes. The periphragm is slightly striate, the endophragm is finely granulate.
Affinities:
Schiloer, 1993, p.111: The new subspecies differs from the two other subspecies of Spiniferites pseudofurcatus only in having a granulate endophragm and a slightly striate periphragm.
