ReferenceDiagnosis
L. M. Carneiro et al. 2018Differs from other pediomyoids in the following combination of features: upper molars lacking winged conules; anterior cingulum reduced to the mesiolabial face of the paracone in M2–3; absence of metacingulum; paracone much lower and smaller than metacone; paracone pyramidal in shape while the metacone is rounded, and StB proportionally larger.
