politum Bujak et al., 1980, p.29, pl.11, fig.1. Holotype: Williams and Downie, 1966b, pl.19, fig.9 (see discussion below), as Wetzeliella glabra; not Bujak et al., 1980, pl.11, fig.1 as indicated in pre-2004 editions of this Index. Aside from the fact that the holotype of Dracodinium politum was incorrectly indicated in pre-2004 editions of this Index, additional potential confusion is caused by the fact that the plates and captions in the originally-issued protologue publication were mixed up. Hence, in Williams and Downie (1966b, original issue), the holotype appears as pl.19, fig.9, opposite the caption labelled plate 19 but clearly intended for the plate labelled 20; the correct caption for the plate labelled 19 is opposite the plate labelled 20. In the 1983 re-issue of the monograph, these problems are corrected and the holotype of Dracodinium politum is pl.20, fig.9, with correct captioning. Age: Early Eocene.
