Raphidodinium fucatum subsp. forma

subsp. forma Deflandre, 1943, p.504–505, pl.17, fig.9; text-fig.27.  Holotype: Deflandre, 1943, pl.17, fig.9 ; text-fig.27.  The rank of this taxon was not specified in the protologue but, since this was not a requirement until 1953 (I.C.N. Article 37.1), the name is validly published.  Williams et al. (1998, p.525–526) arbitrarily assigned it to the rank of subspecies.  N.I.A.  Age: Late Cretaceous.

Parent: Raphidodinium fucatum
