The rocks in which its fossils occur were deposited in the Priabonian, with the oldest dating back to about 36 million years ago (Ma) and the youngest not less than about 33 Ma. It is not precisely known from which strata the first few remains of this bird were collected. They were formerly considered to be of Early Oligocene age some 33-30 Ma but this is now assumed to be incorrect, as only the upper and not the entire Jebel Qatrani Formation is of Oligocene age.
