Holotype ANSP 338703 [details]
Type locality Texas, Culberson Co., Guadalupe Mts., Pine Spring (Canyon, 3.2 km (2 mi.) WNW of village of Pine Springs. 104° 50' 45" W Long, 31° 54' N Lat; 1912 m (6270 ft.) elevation. Deposits are exposed in banks of a small arroyo of high gradient, tributary, from the west, to the main arroyo of the canyon. Deposits occur ca. 30 m west (on east-facing slope) and up-slope from a right-angle bend in the main arroyo (changing from west to north, up-canyon). This sharp bend is .65 km (.4 mi.) south of the "H" in "Devil's Hall" (U.S.G.S. Guadalupe Peak, Texas, 15 min. topographic quadrangle, 1933). [details]
