Baltisphaeridium spiciferum
Baltisphaeridium spiciferum, (Deunff, 1955), Downie and Sarjeant, 1965
Now Multiplicisphaeridium (an acritarch genus). Originally Hystrichosphaeridium, subsequently Baltisphaeridium, thirdly (and now) Multiplicisphaeridium (an acritarch genus); see also Evittia (an acritarch genus; combination not validly published) and Veryhachium (an acritarch genus; combination not validly published). This combination was not validly published in Downie and Sarjeant, 1963 since these authors did not fully reference the basionym.
Holotype: Deunff, 1955, pl.3, fig.1
Age: Middle Devonian
