Description
Original diagnosis after Chahud, 2023 [32489]: Elasmobranchii known only by the teeth. High crown, without cusps, elongated in lingual-labial direction. Thickness of the base (root) equal to or less than the crown. The sides of the tooth perpendicular to the labial and lingual faces have a triangular-shape with the central region of the triangle being convex on one side and concave on the opposite side. Row teeth touching each other but do not form dental plates. Apex longitudinal ridge separates the labial and lingual faces, which form an acute angle.
