TAXON CODE. — 136.

STATUS. — Junior synonym of Palaeolithocyclia Kozur & Mostler, 1972 (by Dumitrica in De Wever et al. 2001: 182).

DIAGNOSIS. — “Phacoid cortical shell, internally with single medullary shell bordered by multiple concentric rings, periphery of cortical shell with short spines in equatorial plane. Cortical shell either with or without pores.” ( Ormiston & Lane 1976: 170).

REMARKS

Although the description of radiolarian species or genera of radiolarians based on thin sections is not recommended, Paleolithocyclia, based on Lithocyclia micrococcus described from thin sections by Rüst (1892: 22, fig. 4), is one of the rare cases when a section approximates the genus rather well and can be shown to have the same features as Eostylodictya .
