Name

Hyalolithus M.Yoshida, M.H.Noël, T.Nakayamaa, T.Naganuma & I.Inouye, 2006

• Type species: Hyalolithus neolepis M.T.Yoshida, M.H.Noël, T.Nakayamaa, T.Naganuma & Inouye = accepted as Prymnesium neolepis (M.T.Yoshida, M.H.Noel, T.Nakayama, T, Naganuma & I. Inouye) Edvardsen, Eikrem & Probert

Note: Considered as synonym of Prymnesium by AlgaeBase and WoRMS, but this is under discussion, because other potential siliceous haptophytes have yet to be sequenced.
