Also known as Corra Lynn Cave, Corrall's, Curramulka

Where: South Australia, Australia (34.7° S, 137.7° E: paleocoordinates 40.3° S, 136.1° E)

• coordinate based on nearby landmark

When: Late/Upper Miocene to Late/Upper Miocene (11.6 - 3.6 Ma)

• Prideaux (2004), with reference to Pledge (1992, The Beagle 9:115-142), states that the deposits are probably of Late Miocene age, but actually Pledge also considered an Early Pliocene age as possible, provided that he is quoted correctly by several subsequent autors (e.g. Archer et al., 1997, Proc. Linn. Soc. NSW 117:3-16; Scanlon, 2005). Hence, >>Early Pliocene<< is added as upper age limit to the collection record. (TL)
