Description
Original diagnosis after Rees & Underwood (2008) [2555]: Large hybodont shark separated from all Hybodus and other Egertonodus species possessing high, multicuspid teeth by the following combination of dental characters: (1) anterior teeth with a high, slender, sigmoidally curved central cusp; (2) strong, somewhat labially displaced cutting edges and a flattened labial surface; (3) three pairs of widely spaced, high, slender lateral cusplets in anterior teeth.
