The round brown spiny cysts belong to several taxa including the paleontological genera Echinidinium and Islandinium and the biological genera Oblea, Polykrikos, and Protoperidinium. Here, we present a synthesis of descriptions with remarks on the morphology, taxonomy, nomenclature and ecology of cysts from the observations of samples collected in high latitude environments. These observations have led us to establish a practical identification key based on the most distinct morphological features that characterize all specimens. These features exclude the archeopyle, which is rarely observed. Two new cyst types are described from Holocene and Pleistocene sediments of the North Pacific and North Atlantic oceans, respectively. The identification key permits the following to be distinguished: "Echinidinium aculeatum", Echinidinium delicatum, Echinidinium granulatum, Echinidinium karaense, Echinidinium sleipnerensis, Echinidinium "transparantum"/zonneveldiae, Islandinium brevispinosum, Islandinium? cezare, and Islandinium minutum, the cysts of Oblea acanthocysta and Polykrikos hartmannii (al. Pheopolykrikos hartmannii), and the new cyst types Echinidinium? sp. A and Echinidinium? sp. B.
