Taxonomic remark From Liu et al., 2015: Sphaerocodium, recorded by Rothpletz (1890) from the Wenlockian of Gotland, Sweden, was shown by Wood (1948) to be an intergrowth of Rothpletzella and Wetheredella (see also Riding & Fan 2001, p. 804). Rothpletzella has been regarded as a cyanobacterium or green alga, but its affinities are unclear (Riding 1991a). We regard it as a Microproblematicum. [details]
