Type locality The exact type locality is unclear. Annandale only indicated it as "Dawna Hills, Tenasserim", which is a mountain range at the border between Myanmar and Thailand. From the discussion focussing on Myanmar (Burma) it seems likely that the fossils come from that country (compare also Gurung et al. 1997), but this remains doubtful. [details]

Fossil range Annandale was uncertain about the age, writing that the fossils "[...] provide little or no evidence as to the age of the beds in which they occur, except as showing that these beds cannot be very ancient." The latter statement probably refers to his finding of a unionid species that is still living in the region today. Gurung et al. (1997) attributed the deposits to the Pliocene, but the exact age remains uncertain. [details]
