Abstract

Molostovskaja (1979, p. 54) described without illustrations the family Darwinuloididae Molostovskaja, 1979. The following year, Molostovskaja (1980, p. 33) described the family again as new [Darwinuloididae fam. nov.]. She included the genus Whipplella Holland, 1934, in the family and illustrated Darwinuloides svijazhicus (Sharapova 1948) (Molostovskaja, 1980, p. 28, figs. 5a, b, 8). Schneider (1948, p. 29, pl. 2, figs, 1a, b) originally described and illustrated this species as “Darwinula svijazhicus Sharapova n. mns.” Two years later, Molostovskaja (1982, p. 158) illustrated cross-sections of the adductor muscle attachment scar patterns in the families of the Darwinulacea Brady and Norman, 1889. Later Molostovskaja (1990, p. 166) erected the superfamily Darwinuloidacea Molostovskaja, 1979 to include Whipplella Holland, 1934, Vymella Kalis and Mischina in Mischina and Kalis, 1975, and questionably Pruvostina Scott and Summerson, 1943. In the same paper, she illustrated Whipplella sp. (pl. 72, figs. 6a, b) [from Sohn, 1977], Vymella dobrinini (Kashevarova, 1961) (pl. 72, figs. 7a-c), Darwinuloides sentjakensis (Sharapova in Schneider, 1948) (pl. 73, figs. 5, 6), and D. svijazhicus (Sharapova in Schneider, 1948) (pl. 74, figs. 14a, b).
