Where: Ukraine (50.6° N, 26.3° E: paleocoordinates 49.8° N, 21.7° E)
• coordinate estimated from map
• local area-level geographic resolution
When: Priabonian (38.0 - 33.9 Ma)
• Likely roughly contemporaneous with late Eocene Baltic amber
Environment/lithology: terrestrial; amber
Size class: mesofossils
Preservation: amber
Collection methods: surface (float)
• Schmalhausen Institute of Zoology of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (Kiev). Material from Klesov (Pugach quarry) and Vol'noe near Dubrovitsa was mixed at the UkrYantar factory, so the provenance cannot be determined (prior to 2003).
