Micrurus gallicus is an extinct

fissure fill in France called La Grive M, dating from the late Middle Miocene.^[1]^[2]^[3]

Another fossil consisting of a single precaudal vertebra, attributed to Micrurus cf. gallicus, was found near Griesbeckerzell, a parish village in Aichach, Bavaria, Germany.^[4] It lived with two species in the genus Naja, Naja romani and Naja depereti. It also likely lived with snakes of the genera Mionatrix of the family Colubridae and Palaeopython of the family Messelopythonidae.
