"PALINOSPHAERA" Reinsch in [[Locker, 1967|Locker 1967]], p.852.  Calcareous dinoflagellate genus.  Taxonomic senior synonym: [[Pithonella]], by implication in [[Zügel, 1994|Zügel (1994]], p.17), who transferred the type to that genus.  [[Locker, 1967|Locker (1967]], p.852) appears to have been first to use this generic name, although he attributed it to [[Reinsch, 1905|Reinsch (1905]]).  Reinsch had used the informal term "Palinosphärien", but did not base a generic name on the term.  Locker provided a brief description and included only a single species, [[Palinosphaera sphaerica]], albeit questionably.  Thus, pending further information, [[Lagena sphaerica Appendix A|Lagena]] (as Palinosphaera) [[Lagena sphaerica Appendix A|sphaerica]] must be considered the type of the generic name Palinosphaera.  Following [[Zügel, 1994|Zügel's (1994]]) transfer of [[Lagena sphaerica Appendix A|Lagena sphaerica]] to [[Pithonella]], Palinosphaera must be considered a taxonomic junior synonym of [[Pithonella]].  Type: [[Palinosphaera sphaerica]] - no holotype designated.
