Description
Original diagnosis after Ginter, 1990 [3127]: Three main and two smaller, intermediate cusps in the crown, slightly inclined linguad, smooth or covered with fine striae; the intermediate cusps very thin and long, reaching almost half the length of the main cusps, which are relatively slender; labial and lingual faces of the cusps may be separated by a low, but distinct blade; the base thin, subelliptical or slightly triangular, with one or two nutritive foramina on its lingual rim.
