Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| M. Takai et al. 1991 | The vertical notch between the paracone and the metacone is very deep, and reaches to the labial edge of the crown. The trigonal pyramid-like stylar cusp B is prominently high and is connected with the paracone by the preparacrista. The mesostyle id posterior to the vertical notch. Between the stylar cusp B and the mesostyle is a deep labial groove touching the vertical notch. Neither basal cingulum nor hypocone is present. |
