Beyrichodinium radiatum

*radiatum Below, 1990, p.71, pl.17, figs.6-15; text-fig.20.  Holotype: Below, 1990, pl.17, figs.6-10.  Contrary to the opinion of Lentin and Williams (1993, p.61), this name is validly published. Below (1987a, p.6) stated that, unless otherwise indicated, all the material is in his personal collection.  Since Below (1987a, 1987b, 1990) are parts I to III of a single study, we agree with J. Jansonius (personal communication) that this statement refers to all three publications and thus that I.C.B.N. Article 37.5 does not apply to this name (see also the discussion on Article 37.5 in the Introduction).  Age: Early Hauterivian.

Parent: Beyrichodinium
