Originally (and now) Aptea, subsequently Pseudoceratium.  By retaining Aptea, Quattrocchio and Sarjeant (1992, p.2–234) effectively retained Aptea polymorpha, the "type species", as a species of Aptea.  Taxonomic junior synonym: Aptea (now Pseudoceratium) eisenackii, according to Cookson and Eisenack (1974, p.74) — however, Below (1981a, p.7) retained Aptea eisenackii.  Age: Aptian.
