Taxonomic remark The genus Pseudoglomospira Bykova, 1955 was included in the Pseudoammodiscidae in Vachard & Le Coze (2022). Its type species P. devonica described from one poorly oriented Famennian specimen showing very few significant whorls, is rather undiagnostic. Almost exclusively used for Carboniferous and Permian taxa, Pseudoglomospira could be a senior synonym of Eoglomospiroides (Carboniferous); or a junior synonym of Glomospirella; or do not belong to the foraminifera but to the reitlingerellids (incertae sedis). Pseudoglomospira is not included in the present classification as being a nomen dubium. [details]
