Reference | Diagnosis | |
---|---|---|
M. Ubilla et al. 1994 | Very close to Leontinia but with 11 enlarged and caniniform, and I2 small. Lower incisors more procumbent and there are no lingual grooves on the protocones of P2-4 as there are in Leontinia. Deep lingual groove in the trigonid of m3, size of the lower canine intermediate between i3 and pl and shorter symphysial length in contrast to Leontinia. |
