Except for an enigmatic patch of scales, all the specimens collected are assigned to a new genus and species, Oreochima ellioti, which is placed in the pholidophoriform family Archaeomaenidae. Prior to this discovery, the archaeomaenids were known only from Lower Jurassic continental deposits of Australia"--P.
