*orbulinarium (de Lapparent, 1918, p.20, pl.2, figs.1-part,2-part; pl.3, fig.2-part) Masters and Scott 1978, p.218.  Holotype: not designated.  Originally Lagena (Appendix A), subsequently Stomiosphaera, thirdly Sphaerella (generic name illegitimate), fourthly Stomiodinium?, fifthly (and now) Inocardion.  Taxonomic senior synonym: Lagena (now Pithonella) sphaerica, according to Bonet (1956, p.450) - however, Masters and Scott (1978, p.215) retained this species as type of Inocardion.  As this combination was published under the I.C.Z.N., it can be considered validly published and legitimate when brought under the I.C.N., even though the basionym was not fully referenced.  Age: Late Cretaceous.

Parent: Inocardion
