"speciosa" Deflandre, 1937b, p.65, pl.11 (al. pl.8), fig.2.  Holotype: Deflandre, 1937b, pl.11 (al. pl.8), fig.2.  NOW Spiniferites?.  Originally Hystrichosphaera, subsequently Spiniferites, thirdly (and now) Spiniferites?.  This name was not validly published in Deflandre (1934, caption to fig.4 — p.967; 1935, p.232; 1936a, p.63), since the generic name Hystrichosphaera was not validly published until 1937 and, additionally, since no description was given.  Age: Late Cretaceous.

Parent: Hystrichosphaera
