Pseudopithonella Trejo 1983 Appendix A

PSEUDOPITHONELLA Trejo, 1983, p.11.  A calcisphere genus according to Elbrächter et al. (2008, p.1303).  This name was proposed under the I.C.Z.N. and the homonym Pseudopithonella Versteegh does not compete against it unless it is brought under the I.C.N.  Elbrächter et al. (2008, p.1301) stated "Trejo (1983) validly published Pseudopithonella Trejo under the I.C.Z.N., but we do not consider this fossil as belonging to any group of organisms governed by the I.C.B.N. [now I.C.N.] (... even the Dinophyceae)".
