Description
Original diagnose after Feichtinger et al., 2025 [34350]: Small centrophorid teeth with marked dignathic and gradient monognathic heterodonty. Upper anterior teeth symmetrical, triangular main cusp flanked by a pair of reduced cusplets. Upper latero-posterior teeth asymmetrical, distally bent main cusp accompanied by distal heel or faint cusplets. Tear-drop shaped apron exceeding the basal root edge in upper jaw teeth. Cusp of lower jaw teeth strongly bent distally, rounded or horizontal distal heel present; mesial cutting edge occasionally serrated. Lingual crown base of lower antero-laterals arched; apron of variable shape, not reaching the basal root edge. Morphology of root vari- able, basal root edge straight to oblique; tooth interlocking surface absent. All teeth with a knob-like uvula; mesio-dis- tally elongated root bulge pierced by medio-lingual foramen; central lingual foramen present.
