Where: Pakistan (32.2° N, 71.1° E: paleocoordinates 46.1° S, 54.5° E)
• coordinate based on nearby landmark
• outcrop-level geographic resolution
When: Amb Formation, Wordian (266.9 - 264.3 Ma)
• The label does not indicate the particular bed the specimen came from, but from the description of the section at Gulami published in Wynne's report, it appears that the only rock which agrees with the one in which the species is preserved occurs in his bed No. 3, immediately overlying his "Boulder Group."
