Enneadocysta pectiniformis

*pectiniformis (Gerlach, 1961, p.195-196, pl.28, fig.14; text-fig.18) Stover and Williams, 1995, p.108.  Emendations: Sarjeant, 1984b, p.83-84,86, as Areosphaeridium pectiniforme; Stover and Williams, 1995, p.114, as Enneadocysta pectiniformis.  Holotype: Gerlach, 1961, pl.28, fig.14; Sarjeant, 1984b, pl.1, fig.2; pl.4, fig.2; Fauconnier and Masure, 2004, pl.7, figs.4-5.  Originally Baltisphaeridium (Appendix A), subsequently Cleistosphaeridium, thirdly Areosphaeridium?, fourthly Areosphaeridium, fifthly (and now) Enneadocysta.  Taxonomic junior synonym: Areosphaeridium (now Enneadocysta) multicornuta, according to Sarjeant (1984b, p.83-84,86) - however, Stover and Williams (1995, p.112) retained Areosphaeridium (as Enneadocysta) multicornutum.  This combination was not validly published in Bujak (1994, p.119) since that author did not fully reference the basionym.  Age: early Oligocene (see Stover and Williams, 1995).
