TYPE:— GERMANY, “hannoverschen Gault” (Forti & Schulz 1933, ‘“ Gault ” Formation (Albian) near Hannover (northwest Germany)’, Gersonde & Harwood 1990: 367) .

Gersonde & Harwood commented on the locality, writing: “Unfortunately, Forti and Schulz 1933 [1932] did not indicate a type locality. According to Benda (1982), the deposit can no longer be located nor any original raw or type material” ( Gersonde & Harwood 1990: 367; see also Georgi 1976).
