Diagnosis

|---|---|---|
| T. D. Cook et al. 2014 | Genus is known from only small isolated teeth. The crown faces are typically smooth. A pair of high, oblique, and rounded heels merges with a needle-like median cusp. The crown foot has a labial emargination on either side of a well-developed apron that is formed by the descending heels. The root has a heart-shaped basal face and is more often than not bisected by a nutrient groove. |
