Neoptychites (Neoptychites) brottianum
No picture of Neoptychites (Neoptychites) brottianum was found. Wikipedia and Wikidata were searched and had none. iDigBio and GBIF were not searched: the Paleobiology Database does not place Neoptychites (Neoptychites) brottianum firmly enough to tell it from something else bearing the same name, and a search on the name alone returns whichever of them was photographed. Smithsonian Open Access did not answer, so this is what the others held rather than everything there is.
Time the record covers
At most 3.8 million years on record.
The one occurrence read is dated to somewhere between 110.1 Mya and 106.3 Mya, which is a dating window rather than a span.
1 occurrence of Neoptychites (Neoptychites) brottianum on record, most of them in the Early Cretaceous. 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
1 occurrences- Early Cretaceous100%
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.
