Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| B. J. Shockey 2005 | Considerably smaller than Anayatherium fortis, Leontinia gaudryi, and Scarrrittia canquelensis. Similar size to Ancylocoelus frequens, but distinct from Ancylocoelus frequens by the presence of grooved protocones of P3-P4, and the lack of well-defined and persistent crista that gives the branched appearance to the major fossette of the upper molars of A. frequens. |
