ELLIPSODINIUM Clarke and Verdier, 1967, p.68-69.  Taxonomic junior synonym: Chelinocysta (name not validly published), by implication in Clarke et al. (1968, p.182), who considered Chelinocysta lita (name not validly published) to be a taxonomic junior synonym of Ellipsodinium rugulosum.  Lentin and Williams (1985, p.123) incorrectly stated that Dictyopyxidia is a taxonomic junior synonym of Ellipsodinium.  Type: Clarke and Verdier, 1967, pl.14, fig.6, as Ellipsodinium rugulosum.
