Lentin, J.K. and Vozzhennikova, T.F., 1989. The fossil dinoflagellate cysts Kisselovia emend. and Charlesdowniea gen. nov. Rev. Palaeobot. Palynol., 58: 216-229. Abstract A re-examination of the type material of the Eocene dinoflagellate cyst genus Kisselovia Vozzhennikova has resulted in the designation of a lectotype for its type species because the holotype has been destroyed. The genus Kisselovia is emended and a new genus, Charlesdowniea, is proposed for those forms previously included in Kisselovia but whose morphology is not within the new circumscription.
