Type locality Reported by White (1886) as "Wales" (Utah). However, according to La Rocque (1960), there are no lacustrine deposits at this locality. After Spieker (1946), the fossils reported by White variably derive from Price River, North Horn and Flagstaff formations (Campanian-Paleocene). [details]
