One of the authors of this paper said on Twitter that the material pertaining to this description is specifically the material on which the Yowie "Miocene Proto-Wombat" toy is based on. So now it has a full name, separate from other members of the genus Rhizophascolonus. A neat connection to the toy collecting world.
