Aprobolocysta neista

neista Duxbury, 1980, p.112-113, pl.2, figs.8-9; text-fig.5.  Holotype: Duxbury, 1980, pl.2, figs.8-9; text-fig.5; Pourtoy, 1988, pl.4, figs.4-5,7-9.  Originally (and now) Aprobolocysta, subsequently Necrobroomea.  Lentin and Williams (1993, p.31) retained this species in Aprobolocysta.  Duxbury (1980) cited the epithet as "neistosa" but indicated that it was based on the Greek adjective "neistos".  According to the I.C.N., taxon names are to be treated as Latin; thus under Article 60.12, this epithet should be rendered as "neista", in agreement with the feminine gender of the generic name.  The neuter form would be "neistum" and the masculine form "neistus".  Age: Barremian.
