Austrorissopsis fricta
No picture of Austrorissopsis fricta was found. Wikipedia, Wikidata, iDigBio and Smithsonian Open Access were searched and had none. GBIF was asked, and what came back is not recorded: nothing, or a picture this site could not tie to Austrorissopsis fricta, or no answer at all. This entry cannot say which.

Time the record covers
At least 14 million years on record.
The record covers at least 15.9 Mya to 1.63 Mya. No occurrence read is dated outside 18.7 Mya to 340 ka.
2 occurrences of Austrorissopsis fricta on record, most of them in the Miocene. Bar height is expected occurrences, not a count: each fossil is spread across the span it is dated to, so a tall narrow bar means tight dating and a low wide one means loose.
When
2 occurrences- Miocene50%
- Pleistocene50%
These are dates about fossils, not the animal: the record can only begin after it arose and end before it died out, so either end may reach further. Shares are expected occurrences: a fossil dated to a span is counted partly in each period it straddles. More on what this infers.
