Description
Original diagnosis after Kirkland, Eaton & Brinkman, 2013 [20268]: Immature teeth nearly identical to those of Cristomylus nelsoni, but reaching considerably larger size of as much as 4 mm across, often with faint crenulations on labial face of crown. These larger teeth are higher crowned and can be distinguished from Cristomylus cifellii in having a stronger transverse crest, and flatter lateral and oral surfaces of the crown (Fig. 9.14).
