''Paleospheniscus biloculatus'' was named after two characteristic humeri (AMNH 3341 and 3346) (Simpson 1946) from the Early Miocene Patagonian Molasse Formation which were found near Gaiman in Chubut Province, Argentina. It was the size of a small gentoo penguin. In 2007 ''P. biloculatus'' was moved to the genus from ''Chubutodyptes'', the species becoming ''P. biloculatus''. ==References== * Simpson, George Gaylord (1946): Fossil penguins. ''Bull. Am. Mus.
