Vesperopsis dolabella

dolabella (Duxbury, 1983, p.25–26, pl.3, fig.11; text-fig.7) Bint, 1986, p.156.  Holotype: Duxbury, 1983, pl.3, fig.11; text-fig.7.  Originally Australisphaera, subsequently (and now) Vesperopsis, thirdly Vesperopsis?.  Lentin and Williams (1993, p.665) included the species in Vesperopsis without question.  Questionable assignment: Lentin and Williams (1989, p.381), who stated incorrectly that Bint (1986, p.156) questionably included this species in Vesperopsis — however, Lentin and Williams (1993, p.665) included the species in Vesperopsis without question.  Bint (1986, p.156) suggested that Muderongia? (as and now Vesperopsis) digitata is a possible taxonomic synonym of this species.  Age: early Albian.

Parent: Vesperopsis
