Vincularia fragilis is recorded from the Eocene, near Paris, France. The specimen illustrated is from the Canu collection, from the Cretaceous of France, and the identification is provisional. Thanks to Dr Paul Taylor for the images.
However, Björn Berning says that this Cretaceous material is a different genus from the original Eocene material.
