?indicum Mehrotra and Sarjeant, 1987, p.163, pl.2, fig.2; pl.7, fig.1 ex Lentin and Williams, 1989, p.63.  Holotype: Mehrotra and Sarjeant, 1987, pl.2, fig.2.  Originally Cyclonephelium (name illegitimate), subsequently Circulodinium, thirdly (and now) Circulodinium?.  Questionable assignment: Fauconnier and Londeix in Fauconnier and Masure (2004, p.116).  The name Cyclonephelium indicum was illegitimate in Mehrotra and Sarjeant (1987) since that name is preoccupied.  By "transferring" the species to Circulodinium, Lentin and Williams (1989) effectively created a "new name".  Age: Paleocene.
