Type series of Jurassic algae Algites magnus Teslenko, 1982, and Algites codiumiformis Teslenko, 1986 and Algites subtilis Teslenko, 1982
Abstract
As a result of the revision of the type material, two taxa of Middle Jurassic non-biomineralized macroalgae from the Crimean Peninsula (southern Ukraine), Algites codiumiformis Teslenko, 1986 and Algites magnus Teslenko, 1982, have been assigned to the trace fossils Dactyloidites ottoi (Geinitz, 1849) and Thalassinoides isp., respectively. Algites theodosiensis Teslenko, 1982 from the Lower Jurassic strata of Crimea, whose type material is likely lost, is synonymized with the ichnospecies Chondrites targionii (Brongniart, 1828).
