An extinct prehistoric cartilaginous fish species from the Chimaeriformes order, characterized by unique morphological features in the fossil record. Lived during the Eocene epoch, representing an ancient lineage of holocephalian marine vertebrates.
Marine environments, likely inhabiting continental shelf and deep ocean regions of prehistoric oceans during the Eocene period, approximately 56-33.9 million years ago.
Played a critical role in marine trophic systems as a predatory species, contributing to evolutionary diversity of early holocephalian fish lineages.
