Used by Dr. L. Eger (Vienna) (1910) and later by Schetelig (1922) for a mineral from a pegmatite at Høgtveit, Evje, Aust-Agder, Norway. Schetelig at first (1922) considered it a metamict variety of zircon but later (1931) concluded it probably was thalenite. Based on the original very incomplete description it was most likely identical with the more recently described mineral keiviite-(Y).
