Fossil species

From the fossil record, two species are known, originally described as Proargentina inclinata (Danilt'chenko 1960) and P. nebulosa (Danilt'chenko 1962) from the Early Oligocene and Early Eocene Dabakhana Svita Formation of Georgia respectively.[3][4] Jerzmanska assigned Proargentina synonymous with Glossanodon in 1968.[5]
