Taxonomic remark Previously treated as an acritarch by some sources, however a euglenid according to Strother et al., 2020. Type species M. uticaensis listed as syn. of Dactylofusa cabottii by Williams, 2012. From Strother et al., 2020: Eisenack et al. (1976) considered Moyeria uticaensis to be a junior synonym of a striate acritarch originally described by Cramer (1971) as Eupoikilofusa cabottii. Miller and Eames (1982) transferred E. cabottii to Moyeria and emended the genus description to reflect the fact that the vesicle was not consistently fusiform in overall shape, thus falling outside the morphological description of Eupoikilofusa ... Thusu (1973, p. 142) specified the location coordinates of the holotype on the original strew slide, and we have located the original intended holotype specimen, which was illustrated in plate 2, figure 19 in Thusu (1973), and is confirmed as the holotype. We have also made an orthographic correction to the original species epithet, uticaensis, which now becomes uticana. This now validates the genus, Moyeria, and re-establishes M. uticana as its type species. [details]
