TYPE SPECIES. — Bisphaera solidispinosa Won, 1997 ( Won 1997a: 346, pl. 3, fig. 9-11).
AGE AND LOCATION OF TYPE MATERIAL. — Upper Devonian, Gogo Formation, Canning Basin. Western Australia.
TAXON CODE. — 082.
STATUS. — Homonym and Junior synonym of Trilonche Hinde, 1899 (by Maldonado & Noble 2010).
DIAGNOSIS. — “Two spherical latticed shells with six to eight inner spines as well as a six- to eight-rays of an internal spicule with a median bar. No radial beam between the shells.” ( Won 1997a: 344).
REMARKS
Won (1997a) emended the diagnosis of Entactinosphaera to exclude two-shelled species, and erected this genus to accommodate the two-shelled forms. The name is a homonym of a fusulinid foraminifer ( Bisphaera Birina, 1948 ), and so the replacement name Duosphaera was proposed ( Won 1998). However, the diagnosis is essentially that of Trilonche Hinde, 1899 , which has priority (see De Wever et al. 2001: 180).
