From other sources
Type locality 'Cote francaise des Somalis' (Vaney, 1905).
This specie has been referred to Thyone by Panning (1949) and to Athyone by Cherbonnier (1955), but Clark & Rowe (1971) judging from Vaney's description consider that it is congeneric with Havelockia herdmani Pearson, the type-species of Havelockia, of which the calcareous ring and type of spicule are similar.
