Cleistosphaeridium danicum
"?danicum" (Wetzel, 1952, p.396–397, pl.A, figs.5–6; text-fig.8) Davey et al., 1969, p.15. Emendation: Sarjeant, 1984c, p.129–130, as Achomosphaera danica. Holotype: Wetzel, 1952, pl.A, fig.6; Dietz et al., 1999, text-fig.6b. NOW Achomosphaera. Originally Areoligera, subsequently Baltisphaeridium (Appendix A), thirdly Hystrichosphaeridium, fourthly Cleistosphaeridium?, fifthly (and now) Achomosphaera. Questionable assignment: Davey et al. (1969, p.15). Taxonomic senior synonym: Areoligera senonensis, according to Lejeune-Carpentier and Sarjeant (1981, p.15) — however, Sarjeant (1984c, p.130) retained Cleistosphaeridium (as Achomosphaera) danicum. This combination was not validly published in Davey et al. (1966, p.170), since those authors did not fully reference the basionym. Age: Paleocene.
