Extinction Likharev and Rammelmeyer (1952) mentioned P. roseni as a Recent species in the fauna of Caucasus. However, judging from the syntype in the ZIN collection, the species was described from fossil shells [details]
Fossil range The age of the material is uncertain. Already Lindholm (1924) wrote "Der Erhaltungszustand des mir vorliegenden Stückes ist derart, daß es nicht mit Sicherheit zu entscheiden ist, ob es rezent oder fossil ist" [The state of preservation of the piece before me is such that it cannot be decided with certainty whether it is recent or fossil]. Egorov (2008) concluded that the material is subfossil. [details]
