Description
Original diagnose after Guinot et al. (2013) p. 601 [24889]: Anterior teeth cuspidate and higher than wide, with triangular and biconvex main cusp inclined lingually; one pair of slightly diverging lateral cusplets united to main cusp with well-developed outer cutting edge; heartshaped occlusal outline of the crown; broad apron with concave labial edge, depression on the apron at the base of the cusplets; strong labial ornamentation of more or less strong irregular vertical folds, anastomosed near labial edge; broad triangular mediolingual protuberance. V-shaped root with narrow branches; lingual protuberance with lingual foramen, basal face with one central and several labial foramina. Low, mesiodistally developed and labiolingually compressed lateral teeth of sigmoid occlusal outline; sigmoid and marked occlusal crest; lingual ornament of parallel labiolingually oriented ridges; labial ornament reticulate with occasional incipient secondary occlusal crest. Flat basal root face; oblique duct; several lingual and labial foramina.
