Remarks | Pomel (1883) described Amphisalenia as a monstrosity under the genus Pseudosalenia without indication of its age or provinance or giving any other distinguishing character. It is therefore not a valid designation. Pomel, A. 1883. Classification méthodique et genera des Échinides vivante et fossiles.
