Taxonomic remark Landing, 1995, treated Ganloudina as a synonym of Mongolodus Missarzhevskii, 1977, however other workers consider it a valid genus. From Yang et al., 2016: Three similar species of Ganloudina have originally been described, that is, Ganloudina symmetrica He, 1984, Ganloudina platybasalis (=Mongolodus platybasalis) Yang and He, 1984, Ganloudina longispina (Mongolodus longispina) Yang and He, 1984. Qian et al. (2003) synonymized the genus Ganloudina with Mongolodus because of their similar morphology and combined the three described species with Mongolodus. Here we agree with this treatment for Mongolodus platybasalis and Mongolodus longispina, however, retain the genus Ganloudina for cusps with a basal denticle and only assign the species Ganloudina symmetrica to this genus. This treatment takes into account that the two genera differ in the presence of a basal denticle and occur in slightly different stratigraphic horizons. [details]
