Description
Original diagnose after Case (1978) p. 189 [388]: Teeth of large size, larger than either Hypotodus aculeatus CAPPETTA & CASE [1975b: *.6— 17, Pi. 6, figs. 1—9), and H. winkleri (LERICHE) from the Thanetian-Ypresian of Morocco. Teeth similar to H aculeatus from the Campanian-Maastrichtian of the Monmouth Group, Upper Cretaceous of New Jersey.
