Description
Original diagnosis after Underwood & Schlögl, 2013 [18090]: Teeth considerably wider than high. Cusp well developed relative to other members of the genus but forms less than half of height of crown and less than quarter of width of crown. Bases of cusp form sharp angle with linguo−occlusal edge of crown. Labial crown face with widely spaced and irregular vertical folds, some reaching close to base of cusp or linguo−occlusal edge, others very short and limited to labial crown edge. Folds do not bifurcate and all reach crown labial edge. Labial edge of crown slightly crenulated with no differentiated labial protuberance.
