Dorof., of which it is the type species, [4] as Palaeoeuryale sukaczevii(P.I. Dorof.) P.I. Dorof published by Pavel Ivanovich Dorofeev in 1972. [4] [5] Later it was proposed to move it to the genus PseudoeuryaleP.I. Dorof. as Pseudoeuryale sukaczevii(P.I. Dorof.) Doweld published by Alexander Borisovitch Doweld in 2022. [6] [7]

Distribution

It occurred in Russia, [1] and possibly in Germany. [2]
