Mahonia lobodonta was named by Becker (1959) [Leaf 3-pinnate, 4 cm, long, 8 cm. wide; petiole 1% cm. long (incomplete), 1 mm. wide with 5 minute, longitudinal striations or grooves; leaflets elongate, in a equilateral, deeply dentate, 4 cm. in length, 29 cm. in total width, sessile, terminal to petiole; lobed teeth 5, prominent, 2 pairs of teeth opposite, central tooth apical; lobed teeth entire, 10 to 13 mm. long, 3 to 5 mm. wide at base, tapering sharply to an (presumably) acute or spinose tip; lamina 7 to 9 mm. wide above basal lobes, 4 to 5 mm. above second pair in the middle of the leaflet; sinuses slightly rounded to angular, mostly 80°, but ranging from 60' to 100'; base broadly cuneate in lateral leaflets which are perpendicular to petiole, narrowly cuneate in central leaflet; midrib strong, curved, flanked by prominent, upward-curving primaries from which abaxial secondaries enter the basal teeth; pair of strong secondaries arising in the middle of the blade at 40' to 50' angle, entering second pair of teeth; primaries and secondaries branching irregularly, forming a coarse, longitudinal mesh; tertiary venation obscure; structure curled; margin thickened; texture coriaceous.]. It is not extant. Its type specimen is UMMP 39566, a leaf.
