Cylindroporella sugdeni Elliott, 1957, an Early Cretaceous Middle Eastern Dasycladalean alga – a revision
The type material of Cylindroporella sugdeni Elliott, 1957, is revised. The total lack of sterile laterals and consequently the absence of the diagnostic feature of the genus Cylindroporella, i.e., the alternation of sterile and fertile laterals within the same whorl, leads to its exclusion from the genus Cylindroporella Johnson, 1954, and to its ascription to the genus Holosporella Pia, 1930. Recent stratigraphic investigations suggest that the stratum typicum originally reported as Early Cretaceous in age is more precisely Hauterivian or possibly Early Barremian in age.
