Protoxynotus misburgensis (Kat.-Nr. kca 8), holotype, symphyseal lower jaw tooth, lingual and labial view, Upper Campanian, Misburg near Hannover, Germany

Description
Original diagnose after Herman (1975) p. 296 [1118]: Die bisher alle in bekannten unteren Zähne entsprechen den Arten der rezenten Gattung Oxynotus RAFINESQUE, 1810 in der Stellung im Kiefer, dem Umriß, der Anzahl der inneren Foramen, der inneren Pseudofurche, der Form des äußeren Überhangs und des inneren Zäpfchens sowie im Umriß der Krone mit den angedeuteten Randzäckchen. Die neue Gattung unterscheidet sich dagegen von Oxynotus durch die v i e l geringere Größe und geringere Höhe, die verhältnismäßig kurze Wurzel mit nur wenig entwickelten äußeren Foramen und das ganz unten an der Basis liegende Zentralforamen.
