Where: Angola (11.1° S, 13.9° E: paleocoordinates 27.4° S, 0.2° E)
• coordinate estimated from map
• small collection-level geographic resolution

• bed-level stratigraphic resolution
Environment/lithology: marine
Size class: macrofossils
Preservation: mold/impression
Collection methods: probably own field collection; all specimens are in the collections of the British Museum (Natural History) and catalogue numbers have the prefix letter C
