03A4754AFFE5C129A278F8C8FB23FCB1.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis: Inaperturate palynomorph of markedly variable shape, bearing conspicuous solid exinal projections (knob-like, horn-like to filamentous), mostly situated in the thickened equatorial area.	en	Svobodová, Marcela, Vavrdová, Milada (2008): Spesovicornea Pacltovae Gen.

03A4754AFFE5C129A278F8C8FB23FCB1.taxon	description	G e n e r i c d e s c r i p t i o n: Outline of the body varies from circular to oval, triangular with rounded apices or trilobate with shallow interradial depressions. Solid exinal projections extending from the equatorial margin range from conical horns to bulbous hemispherical knobs or club-shaped outgrowths. Less frequently, the projections are arranged in rows, forming irregular wings. Rarely, one or more processes are situated in the centre. The exine is equatorially thickened, polar areas variously sculptured (i. e., verrucate). The surface of thickenings and projections is smooth. Germinal apparatus was not ascertained, possibly colpate (?).	en	Svobodová, Marcela, Vavrdová, Milada (2008): Spesovicornea Pacltovae Gen. Nov. Et Sp.

03A4754AFFE5C129A278F8C8FB23FCB1.taxon	discussion	R e m a r k s: The genus is characterized by irregular development of appendages and by short radial ribs and other columellar elements on the equatorial margin. Variations in shape and sculpture such as folded down solid exinal projections, may be attributable to different stages of maturity of the grain (Pl. 1, figs. 9, 10).	en	Svobodová, Marcela, Vavrdová, Milada (2008): Spesovicornea Pacltovae Gen.

03A4754AFFE5C12AA0DFFCFBFBC6FCAB.taxon	description	Description: Outline variable: circular, trilobate, triangular with shallow interradial depressions, rarely ellipsoidal, oval or polygonal with rounded apices. Surface psilate, granulate or with irregularly distributed flat verrucae. Body encircled in places by a narrow equatorial zone, which is indicated on the body by short parallel columns. Columns gradually change from short finger-like thickenings to more massive jointed (moniliform) elements. Solid exinal extensions of variable size and shape: bulbous, horn-like or knob-like, resemble elaters. Larger projections are usually perpendicular to the polar axis, slightly curved or hooked to the base. Distal terminations of processes are rounded, blunt or occasionally widened. Surface of extensions smooth. Small circular pits can be present in widened areas. In places, projections are developed in rows or piled up, forming fan-like wings. Polar projections may be present. Distribution of outgrowths tends to be symmetrical, with main projections in three corners and less conspicuous ones in the spaces between. In places, the exine is differentiated into two or three poorly defined layers. Germinal apparatus is not clearly developed, however, the presence of a colpus cannot be excluded. Irregular meridional ruptures were observed on some specimens. D i m e n s i o n s: (12 specimens measured): length of body 30 (35) 40 µm; width 25 (30) 38 µm; maximum length of processes 3 - 22 µm, width of processes 3 - 10 µm, exine thickness 1,5 - 5 µm I l l u s t r a t i o n s: Pl. 1, figs 1 - 16.	en	Svobodová, Marcela, Vavrdová, Milada (2008): Spesovicornea Pacltovae Gen.

03A4754AFFE5C12AA0DFFCFBFBC6FCAB.taxon	distribution	G e o g r a p h i c d i s t r i b u t i o n: Moravia, Bohemian Cretaceous Basin. M a t e r i a l: 12 specimens. R e m a r k s: Most of the elaterate pollen grains are distinguished by a smooth exine (i. e., Alaticolpites, Elateroplicites, Galeacornea, and Sofrepites) and the presence of colpi. Elaters are generally developed more conspicuously, their length can exceedthe width of the body several times. The species which is most similar to the forms described here is Elaterosporites verrucatus (JARDINÉ et MAGLOIRE) JARDINÉ 1967, illustrated in Dino et al. (1999, pl. 5, fig. 2). Spoon and club-shaped processes resemble Elaterocolpites castelainii JARDINÉ et MAGLOIRE 1965 which differs in uniform processes and exinal surface. A low number of projections and a similar columnar exinal differentiation in the equatorial area connect the described form with the species Galeacornea clavis Stover 1963. Spesovicornea pacltovae differs in its remarkably irregular shape, size and position of exinal elater-like adaptations. Scupture on the surface in the central area is less prominent than in Elaterosporites verrucatus (JARDINÉ et MAGLOIRE) JARDINÉ 1967 and Elaterosporites spicatus (STOVER) JARDINÉ 1967.	en	Svobodová, Marcela, Vavrdová, Milada (2008): Spesovicornea Pacltovae Gen.
