Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
A. F. Rincon et al. 2012Small floridatraguline that differs from all species of Aguascalientia in having a small fossettid between metaconid and hypoconid on p3; p1–c1 diastema longer than m2 length; and well-developed styles on lower and upper molars. Differs from A. wilsoni in having deeper fossettids on molars, less reduced premolars, and less lingualy inflected paraconids on lower pre- molars; having a relatively large caniniform p1; differs from A. minuta, sp. nov., in having a greater size, absence of enamel fold on the anterior wall of the posterior fossettid of m2, and absence of posterolingual crest on p3.
D. R. Prothero et al. 2023(after Rincon et al. 2012, 459-461): “Small floridatraguline that differs from all species of Aguascalientia in having a small fossettid between metaconid and hypoconid on p3; p1–c1 diastema longer than m2 length; and well-developed styles on lower and upper molars.
