Areoligera medusettiformis
medusettiformis Wetzel, 1933b, caption to pl.4, fig.19 - p.41 ex Lejeune-Carpentier, 1938a, p.B170. Holotype: Wetzel, 1933b, pl.4, fig.19; Lejeune-Carpentier, 1938a, fig.7. Originally Hystrichosphaera penicillata forma medusettiformis (name not validly published), subsequently (and now) Areoligera medusettiformis. Taxonomic senior synonym (at specific rank): Hystrichosphaera penicillata forma coronata (now Areoligera coronata), according to Morgenroth (1968, p.551) - however, Eaton (1976, p.245) retained Areoligera medusettiformis. The name Hystrichosphaera penicillata forma medusettiformis was not validly published in Wetzel (1933b), since the specific combination Hystrichosphaera penicillata was not validly published. Age: Senonian.
