Spiniferites pseudofurcatus
pseudofurcatus (Klumpp, 1953, p.388, pl.16, figs.12–14) Sarjeant, 1970, p.76. Emendation: Sarjeant, 1981, p.108–109, as Spiniferites pseudofurcatus. Holotype: Klumpp, 1953, pl.16, figs.12,14; Sarjeant, 1981, pl.3, figs.1–2; text-fig.2; Fensome et al., 1995, figs.1–2 — p.1709. Originally Hystrichokibotium, subsequently Hystrichosphaera (combination illegitimate), thirdly (and now) Spiniferites. Taxonomic senior synonym: Areoligera (as Hystrichosphaera, now Spiniferites) incerta, according to Morgenroth (1966a, p.15) — however, Sarjeant (1981, p.108–109) retained Hystrichokibotium (as and now Spiniferites) pseudofurcatum. Taxonomic junior synonyms: Hystrichosphaera (as Spiniferites) buccina, according to Lentin and Williams (1973, p.126); Hystrichosphaera tertiaria, according to Gocht (1969, p.32) and Sarjeant (1970, p.76). May (1980, p.64) considered Achomosphaera alcicornu to be a possible taxonomic junior synonym of this species. Age: late Eocene.
