Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| B. J. Shockey 2005 | Snout short, with corresponding loss of an anterior upper tooth; apparently, but not definitely, the canine. I1 greater than I2. P3-P4 with vertical, lingual grooves (as in Leontinia), but indistinct or lacking in P2. Differs from Leontinia by incisiform, rather than caninifrom, I2 and apparent loss of canine. Like Scarrittia, I1 is larger than I2, but differs from Scarrittia by presence of the grooved premolar protocones. |
