Bournelyreidus carlilensis ( Feldmann & Maxey, 1980) n. comb.

Raninella carlilensis Feldmann & Maxey, 1980: 858 .

Remarks. Raninella carlilensis (see Feldmann & Maxey 1980: 858, text-figs. 1–3), as based on four specimens from the middle Turonian of Kansas ( U.S.A.), is here reassigned to Bournelyreidus n. gen. The ventral sides of all specimens is poorly preserved, but the large mxp3 coxae, intercalated between the thoracic sternum and pterygostome, are well visible ( Feldmann & Maxey 1980: 859, text-fig. 1A). There is a narrow junction between sternite 4 and the pterygostome, despite the fact that this is not sufficiently well-preserved in the type series. The rostrum is excavated; its tip and the outer orbital corners may be incompletely preserved in the type series. The pterygostome is tumid, ‘possessing two fairly deep sulci’ ( Feldmann & Maxey 1980: 859; see also their text-fig. 1C), and the carapace bears two slender anterolateral spines. Raninella carlilensis , R. tridens and R. oaheensis appear to have a similar rostral region ( Feldmann & Maxey 1980: 860, 861).
