Description
Original diagnose after Popov et al. (2019) p.224 [27395]: A callorhinchid chimaeroid fish, known from the mandibular plate only. Mandibular plate with very high descending lamina, more than twice higher than the oral part of the plate. The oral region of the plate is fully occupied by vascular tritors: a laterally placed outer tritor and a large, centrally placed, median tritor. The median tritor is compound in cross-section and makes up most of the inner space of the oral region of the plate.
