Description
Original diagnose after Engelbrecht et al. (2019) p. 1035 [27541]: Extinct rajid only known by isolated teeth, which are characterized by the following combination of characters; small teeth (approximately 1 mm in width); crown as wide as the root; pyramidal rather low crown, with nearly smooth labial and lingual surface; labial protuberance more pronounced in lateral teeth and slightly pointing downwards; knob-like labial protuberance with flat oval structure centred on the labial face of the protuberance; cutting edges do not reach base of the crown in anterior teeth; smooth occlusal crown face in anterior teeth; lateral teeth have two transversely directed ridges on the occlusal surface; uvula lacking in all tooth positions; basal edge of the lingual crown face slightly triangular; root lobes well separated by a broad and deep furrow; edges of basal root lobe base rounded and some widened at their lower parts; basal root face slightly convex.
