Description
Original diagnose after Guinot et al. (2013) p. 654 [24889]: Teeth under 1 mm high, higher than wide, showing strong gradient heterodonty. Triangular main cusp flanked by a pair of lateral cusplets in anterior, two in laterals. Lingual and labial ornament varying with jaw position; lingual face of anterior teeth with fine longitudinal ridges restricted to the marginal areas, smooth or very weakly ornamented in laterals; labial face generally smooth or with few short vertical ridges below cusplets and/or on the basal region of main cusp in anteriors, reduced to strong crenulations on the basal bulge of lateral teeth; lower parasymphyseal teeth with stronger ornament. Main cusp weakly inclined distally in anterior teeth, more inclined and broader in laterals. Labial basal edge of crown concave. Root low,Vshaped with lingually and labially flared and flat to weakly convex basal face; strong and rounded mediolingual protuberance; labial lobe extremities flared and curved towards the cusplets. Numerous rounded and wide labial foramina.
