Description
Original diagnosis after Hairapetian, Ginter & Yazdi, 2008 [1069]: As for genus: Asymmetrical teeth with an arched, subrectangular, lingually undeveloped base provided by a gentle labial extension. Crown composed of three robust unequal smooth cusps. Lateral cusps larger than median one. Cusps fused together near base. Intermediate cusplets absent, and boundary between crown and base indistinct. One or two very large vascular canal openings set on lingual side of base, close to the basal rim, whereas the labial face, with numerous irregularly placed foramina.
