balmei (Cookson and Eisenack, 1962b, p.486) Ioannides, 1986, p.35. Emendation: Morgan, 1977, p.130, as Alterbia minor. Holotype: Cookson and Eisenack, 1960a, pl.1, fig.1; Morgan, 1977, text-fig.2. Originally Deflandrea minor (name illegitimate), subsequently Deflandrea balmei, thirdly Alterbia balmei (combination illegitimate), fourthly Isabelidinium balmei, fifthly (and now) Spinidinium balmei, sixthly Magallanesium balmei. Taxonomic senior synonym: Palaeohystrichophora (as Diconodinium) minuta, according to Morgan (1977, p.130) - however, Lentin and Williams (1981, p.156) retained Deflandrea (as Isabelidinium, now Spinidinium) balmei. Sluijs et al. (2009, p.47) retained this species in Spinidinium. Age: Late Cretaceous.
