Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| Y. Rollot et al. 2021 | Uluops uluops can be diagnosed as a pleurosternid by the presence of a jugal that does not extend deeply ventrally, a plate-like supraoccipital exposure on the skull roof between the parietals, an anteriorly convex nasal– frontal suture, anterior tubercula basioccipitale on the parabasisphenoid, and the exclusion of the exoccipitals from the articular surface of the occipital condyle |
