Holotype HVH 8, Eocene, Claiborne, Cook Mountain Fm.; “from Sample No. 39,” (Rob-5): “On the left bank of Saline Bayou beneath the Louisiana & Arkansas Railroad bridge at St. Maurice, sec. 15, T. 9 N., R. 6 W.,” Winn Parish, Louisiana. “The lower part of the bluff is marine and is traversed by five iron ore ledges. Below each of these ledges there is a fossiliferous layer of clay, each layer averaging perhaps 1½ feet in thickness. The lowest of these fossiliferous beds was at water level at the time collected.” Sample No. 39 is “from beneath the lowest iron ore ledge and collected at water level. Elevation—77± feet.” Collected by Marion S. Roberts in 1932 with H.V. Howe (Roberts 1934, Bed 5). Figured: pl. 1, figs. 13, 14. [details]
