This database results in large part from a compilation of information published in [[Fensome et al., 1993b|Fensome et al. (1993b)]] and [[Fensome and Williams, 2004|Fensome and Williams (2004)]]. We thank Micropaleontology Press and the American Association of Stratigraphic Palynologists Foundation for permission to use material from these works. The acknowledgements in the two publications are also valid for DINOFLAJ2, and we refer the user to those publications: however, we would be remiss not to acknowledge here the substantial support and assistance that we’ve had over the years from Martin Head, Jan Jansonius, Judi Lentin, Jim Riding, the late Lew Stover, Max Taylor and John Williams.

For the technical aspects of the database, a number of co-op students have worked on the project since the mid 1990's: thus we are grateful to Matthew Goodarzi, Christopher Davison and Andrew Mathison. For this version, we are much indebted to Patrick Upson for his exceptional insights and commitment to making DINOFLAJ2 a reality. We also thank Phil Spencer, Steve Perry and Phil Moir at the Geological Survey of Canada (Atlantic) for support and advice; and Bev Kouri and Jamie Rupert of Natural Resources Canada of Ottawa for feedback regarding GSC web protocols. This is ESS Contribution number 20070597.

Finally, we thank the authors of a number of software tools for making their efforts freely available for modification and use: [http://www.mediawiki.org MediaWiki], [https://semantic-mediawiki.org/|Semantic Mediawiki]], [http://www.mysql.com/ MySQL], [http://www.php.net/ PHP], and [http://www.apache.org/ Apache].

09/2015: The software now runs on a [http://www.linuxmint.com/| Linux Mint] server that is ultimately based on [http://www.ubuntu.com/| Ubuntu] and [https://www.debian.org/| Debian] GNU/Linux distributions.

+Updating the Index/DINOFLAJ after a lapse of twelve years was a massive task that would have been impossible without the unstinted support of numerous colleagues.  These include: Peter Bijl, Henk Brinkhuis, Chris Clowes, Erica Crouch, Stijn De Schepper, Karen Dybkjær, Lucy Edwards, Malte Elbrachter, Susanne Feist-Burkhardt, Rahul Garg, Marc Gottschling, Raquel Guerstein, Rex Harland, Claus Heilmann-Clausen, Martin Head, Alina Iakovleva, Laurent Londeix, Stephan Louwye, Daniel Mantle, Fabienne Marret-Davies, Edwige Masure, Francine McCarthy, Kenneth Mertens, Peta Mudie, Dirk Munsterman, Henrik Nøhr-Hansen, Martin Pearce, Daniel Peyrot, Michael Prauss, Joe Prebble, Jim Riding, André Rochon, Francesca Sangiorgi, Paul Schioler, Hamid Slimani, Appy Sluijs, Ali Soliman, Michael Streng, Gerard Versteegh, Karin Zonneveld.  We apologize to anyone we inadvertently omitted.  Susanne Feist-Burkhardt pointed out some errors in our references to the papers by C.G. Ehrenberg in previous versions of the Index and assisted us in correcting these mistakes; however, any errors that remain are fully our responsibility.  Malte Elbrächter, Marc Gottschling and Michael Streng were towers of strength in helping us to update the entries for the calcareous dinoflagellate cysts and in providing us with several, otherwise inaccessible reprints.  We owe an especial debt of gratitude to Michael for responding to our numerous queries promptly and expertly.  We are grateful to Jennifer Galloway, Raquel Guerstein and Martin Head for reviewing all or parts of the manuscript.  We are indebted to Bill MacMillan and Nelly Koziel for technical support.  And we thank Judi Lentin, Jim Riding and Bob Clarke for managing the publication aspects of both the Index and DINOFLAJ.  Finally, we are grateful to the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) and Saint Mary’s University for providing the facilities for production of this edition of the Index.  Indeed there would not be an Index, without the continuing support of the GSC since 1973.
