Taxonomic remark From Schrank, 2003: Cymatiosphaera was ... regarded as a senior synonym of Cymatiosphaeropsis Mädler (1963) because the diagnostic features of the latter (presence of granules in the septate fields) were interpreted as of specific rather than of generic rank (Eisenack et al., 1973; Playford, 1977; Fensome et al., 1990) ... However, the type species of Cymatiosphaera has other features (high membranes supported by stout distally bifurcating processes; Cookson and Eisenack, 1960), which do not occur in Cymatiosphaeropsis and in many Cymatiosphaera species and which could serve as valid generic characters.
